You can override the Client Destination and the Resulting Client Directory Path will reflect where the reports will be saved. At the bottom of the screen, you have the option to save the documents either automatically or manually to Drake Documents.

Drake Accounting® can only store reports and documents in the Archive Cabinet. Make sure the Archive Cabinet is selected within Drake Documents before setting up the Drake Documents Options for Drake Accounting^®.
