You can simply define path of report in config file as discussed here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13152765/declare-a-string-in-web-config-file[^]
As described at below link, use following code:

XML

<appsettings>
    <add key="dir" value="YourReportPathHereInProperFormat" />
  </appsettings>

C#

string dir = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["dir"].ToString();

For more look into "AppSettings" at below article:
Web.config File - ASP.NET[^]
Thanks.
