How to: Add Report Server Content Types to a Library (Reporting Services in SharePoint Integrated Mode)

Reporting Services provides predefined content types that are used to manage shared data source (.rsds) files, report models (.smdl), and Report Builder report definition (.rdl) files. Adding a Report Builder Report, Report Model, and Report Data Source content type to a library enables the New command so that you can create new documents of that type.

To add content types to a library, you must be a site administrator or have Full Control level of permission.

To enable content type management for the library

  1. Open the library for which you want to enable multiple content types. On the library menu bar, you should see the following menus: New, Upload, Actions, and Settings. If you do not see Settings, you do not have permission to add a content type.

  2. On the Settings menu, click Document Library Settings.

  3. Under General Settings, click Advanced settings.

  4. In the Content Types section, select Yes to allow multiple content types.

  5. Change any other settings that you want, and then click OK.

To add report server content types

  1. Open the library for which you want to add Reporting Services content types.

  2. On the Settings menu, click Document Library Settings.

  3. Under Content Types, click Add from existing site content types.

  4. In the Select Content Types section, in Select Site content types from, click the arrow to select Reporting Services.

  5. In the Available Site Content Types list, click Report Builder, and then click Add to move the selected content type to the Content types to add list.

  6. To add Report Model and Report Data Source content types, repeat steps 4 and 5.

  7. When you finish selecting all of the content types that you want to add, click OK.

To add report server content types

#4 should read ".... click the arrow to select Report Server Content Types.

I think this is a difference between SSRS 2005 and SSRS 2008. I have SSRS 2005 installed and yes, it's "Report Server Content Types", however I suspect SSRS 2008 uses the "Report Services Content Types" terminology. And given that this page is for SSRS 2008... then this isn't a bug.
