Generating a Saved Report

To generate a report from the reports folder page

1. In the Reports Folder page, click next to the report you want to generate.

   -OR-

   In the Reports Folder page, click next to the report you want to generate and select Generate.

2. If the designed report is a parameterized report (one or more of its fields were set as parameters), a pop-up screen is displayed.

   All parameters are presented in a single pop-up screen, regardless of the number of the parameters, and in the same way as in the Report Wizard (i.e. including the More buttons).

   For a Compound or Report-Group report, the single pop-up screen is divided into sections (one section for each participating parameterized report).

3. Select the values for the parameters.

   Notes:

   • Values for mandatory parameters must be selected before generating the report.
   • The default value of the parameter (if defined) is selected automatically, but the user can change this value.
   • Only allowed values are shown to the end-user. The allowed values depend on the user's security permissions.
   • If there is only one allowed value, it is selected automatically.
   • If a field that depends on another field was defined as a parameter, the other field is also displayed in the pop-up screen and the values available for the dependent field depend on the value selected for the other field. For example, if Contract was defined as a parameter, the user who generates the report needs to fill in values for two fields: Contract Party and Contract. The values available for the Contract field depend on the value the user selected for the Contract Party field.
4. Click Done. The report is generated and its GUI is displayed.
