When importing custom reports in the Sage Intelligence Report Manager, currently a message notifies that a container already exists and to select yes to use the existing one or no to create a new one. I would like to suggest that the same option be made available if the same sub-report already exists.

This idea came about after writing over 50 Report Designer Add-In reports for a client on my workstation, which I had assigned all to one set of Report Designer Add-In sub-reports, then realized when importing them to the clients workstation that a new set of sub-reports were being created for each & every report imported. I then had to reassign all the custom reports to one set of sub-reports and remove the additional to avoid creating over 400 unnecessary duplicate sub-reports.
