Use the [ Edit... ] button, the “Edit...” context menu item or press the Space key while an element from the list is selected. The Edit SSRS resources dialog dialog will be displayed allowing you to edit the properties of the resource's deployment.

NoteYou can target the deployment to a server that is running on a different machine than the one where the installer is running, only if the machines are connected to the same domain.

ImportantFor performing the deployment, Advanced Installer uses a tool which is part of the Reporting Services component of the SQL Server. Therefore you must have an instance of the SQL Server installed on the machine where you are running the install package.
