You are correct that the Deploy tab would not show individual packages results if you deployed a repository.  Going to the Repository subtab, only shows the instance of the repository.  You would have to click it to see what is inside.  However, you can see this in the reports in some capacity.  This is by either doing an environment report, which would show the repo and its content (in this case instances).  Or you could do a repo instance report, which would again tell you where the repo and its content (package instances) was deployed.  What you cannot do and I think you are asking for, is to run a package instance report to see where that instance was deployed regardless if you deployed it as a package or repo instance.

We should move this over to an idea to see if we can create a more comprehensive report.

I think you are using the Environment Contents report.  If you use the Environment Manifest report, you would see something like this :

Repo1

Instance                        0.0.0.3

Instance Date                Thu Nov 6 04:46pm

Deployment Date           Thu Nov 6 04:46pm

Result                            Pass

Content

Name

App1:0.0.0.1                                                             

App2:0.0.0.2

Also, the Environment History report would show you more specifics on each deployment to the selected environment.  Regardless, neither of these solve your real problem because in both these cases you would have to be doing a report per environment and not for the instance.  So you would have to know which environment you expected the deployment to be on.  Again, let's create an idea and we will see if we can come up with a better report.

We had to build SQL queries at our firm in order to extract this information because we were also finding it difficult to get this information.

We have converted this into an Idea (https://communities.bmc.com/ideas/8615), and it is under consideration for RDP 4.4 Patch 8.
