    About this task

    Redirect the user to a URL rather than to the configured drilldown or the list that underlies the selected section of a report.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > Reports > View / Run.
    2. Select the report that you want to configure.
    3. Select the Show report structure icon (Show report structure).
    4. Select the link icon ().
    5. In the Set redirect URL dialog box, enter relative link within the instance, for example, /$knowledge.do?sys_id=123.
      When the user points to the report, the tooltip includes the text Click to open.
    6. Optional: Enter a label for the URL.
      When the user points to the report, the tooltip includes the text Click to open and the text of the label, for example, Click to open Knowledge Base.
    7. Select Save.
