Option |
Description |
Start |
Select whether to use a Relative time to execute the report or a specific date and time. For example, if this Report was saved with the intention of running it in the future, selecting a Relative start of 7 days would mean the report start time would be 7 days from each time the report is executed. Using a specific date and time is only useful if this report is intended to be run only once and not in the future. |
End |
If a Relative time was selected in the Start section, selecting Now would set the report time dynamically to the time the report was run. If a specific data and time was selected it is most likely that a specific date and time for the end of the report is appropriate. |
Time of Day |
Searching by Full Days will include all 24 hours in a day. In cases where a search should spend multiple days but only a certain period of time per say, Partial days should be selected. For example, we may search across 7 days but only 10:00 - 20:00 each day, to filter out results that happened outside of store hours. |
6. Select the format and create an email recipient list for the report in the Distribution > Email tab.
7. Schedule when reports should be run including the time range of data, the recurrence, and schedule range.
8. On the Table View tab, define which columns should be included in the report.
• Select the Column link and drag a column header into top header. This causes information to be grouped by the column category.
• By default, all available column are shown in the Table View unless manually removed.
9. Define Graph Type and the Graph Size (the Graph Size is the image size of the report graphic).
10. Select Save and then Run to finish the report. To save the generated report in the format you selected in the Distribution > File subtab (previously), click Send Report and then File.
