Review A Populated Online Report (From The Reporting Sidebar) #
Once you have completed setting the contents page(s) – which might be as simple as setting ‘Rows’ and ‘Select all’ – you can review the populated online report.
From the reporting sidebar, click the eye icon to review a populated online report.
As a result a new browser tab will open, and the report can be seen.
A Populated Report can also be seen from Manage Assets
Once a populated report has been successfully completed, you can always access it quickly from that Asset’s sidebar.
From the Manage Assets screen, click on an asset.
The Asset sidebar opens.
Where a completed report exists for a job, this will be listed as ‘Report Made’. Next to it there will be an eye icon.
Click on the eye icon to open the completed report for that job.
As a result a new browser tab will open, and the report can be seen.
More Than One Report Template? #
You can have more than 1 Report Template associated with a Job. That way you can have the same report with different branding, or even have a different display style. The choice is yours.
