Part III: Report Serving > Chapter 12: Teamwork: Integrating Reporting Services
Teamwork: Integrating Reporting Services
In This Chapter
Up to this point, we have been using Reporting Services just as it comes out of the box (or off the installation disc, if you want to get technical). All our management of Reporting Services features and all our report execution have been through the Report Manager or the SQL Server Management Studio. Reporting Services, the Report Manager, and the SQL Server Management Studio do, after all, provide a feature-rich environment in their default configuration.
One of the best features of Reporting Services, however, is the capability to extend it beyond its basic operation. In this chapter, we do just that. You learn ways to execute reports without using the Report Manager interface. You also look at ways to manage Reporting Services without using the Report Manager or the SQL Server Management Studio.
