Reports Structure

Reports Structure

To ensure consistency and ease of use all reports in the application are structured the same way and as described below.

  1. Filter Bar: This allows you to change the date range of the report and also filter by certain criteria such as the program or entity (product, customer, etc). There is more detail on report filtering below.
  2. Function Bar: This allows you to navigate, search, export and print your report. There is more detail on report functions below.
  3. Report Title Section: The title section of the report will be consistent across all reports in the application. It will contain the name of the report with any filter in brackets, the name of the site and the date range.
  4. Chart: Not all reports have charts but many do. For more information see the article on Report Types.
  5. Hide Chart: Where a report does have a chart you can easily hide it by clicking 'hide chart'. Likewise, when the chart is hidden you can easily show it by clicking 'show chart'.
  6. Report may include a table of data.

  1. If a report is long you can navigate through the report pages.
  2. You can search the report for specific keywords. Just enter the search term and click enter.
  3. All reports can be exported to many file formats including PDF, Excel and Word.
  4. It is typically not necessary to use the refresh function but you may do so if you feel the underlying data may have changed since you opened the report and you absolutely must have the current data.
