Appendix B: Export and Save Summary Reports

The Enterprise Reporter has a variety of different reporting options. In a fashion similar to the Specific User Report creation process described in the sample inves- tigation earlier in this guide, administrators can also create custom reports from a Summary Drill Down Report view. Summary Custom Reports can be set up to be automatically emailed to the administrator on a regular basis in a variety of formats (e.g. PDF, Excel, etc.). Follow the steps below on how to export and save these types of custom reports.

Record exportation tip

Step 1: Select records to be exported

In the report view, each record is preceded by a checkbox that is populated (selected) by default.

When exporting a report, only selected records are included. To de-select a record, click the checkbox to remove the check mark from the checkbox.

To de-select all records, click the checkbox in the column header. Clicking the checkbox in the column header again reselects all records.

Step 2: Use header buttons for report customization

Clicking one of the buttons at the top of the summary report view opens a pop-up box that lets you customize the current report view. The following buttons are avail- able:

New Report - this option lets you generate a drill down report view for a date range other than the current (default) date.

Modify Report - this option lets you modify the current report view by doing any of the following: specify the maximum number of records to be included other than the number entered in Default Options; perform a search for specified text, or sort the report in ascending or descending order by a specified column.

Export Report - this option lets you email, print, or view the current report view in the specified output format.

Save Report - this option lets you save the current report view so a report using these customizations can be run again later at a designated time.

Set Result Limit - this option lets you specify the maximum number of records to be included in the report view, instead of the default number (entered in Default Options).
