Select a predefined or custom report group in the left pane, and then click Add to add the report to that group. To remove the report from a report group, select the group in the right pane, and then click Remove. Custom report groups are displayed under default groups that represent modules.
   
   Note

   To be able to select a custom report group in the Report Group field, you need to add custom report groups to the Report Groups list under Settings > Site Lists and Libraries > Report Groups.
