Tutorial: Creating Model-Based Reports in Report Designer

You can create reports based on report models within Report Designer and then use Report Designer's functionality to continue to design your report. By using the Report Model Query Designer, you can create a data source, connect to an existing report model, add the fields that you want to your query, and then modify the report definition using Report Designer.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to build a query based on a report model, and then generate the report.
