My application reports are not present in MRE but present in Data server path. I could not see an option to run defer mode for the files in Data server.

Can we run in defer mode in data server ?

If not can we add a option to deferred run ?

Defer run is something the end user might want to do since he needs to have his screen free.
An other option is to use reportcaster to schedule a run

If you have a license for Reporcaster...you schedule your reports to run there...you do not move them there.
It's pretty easy to put a report there and the documentation should help.

Also, deferred execution is only available in Managed Reporting (MRE).

FYI

Reports can be run deferred from the server, but it required loggin onto the WebFOCUS server, which should be restricted.

And its not pretty

On the WebFOCUS server, click on procedures.
Then drill down the application directories to find the fex.

Right-Click on the fex, select Run-Advanced, then select RunDeferred.

If the app directory is not there, it will have to be added with the tree like icon near the top of the page.
