Export Report from Report Preview
When reports are run they are presented in the Report Preview window. The report data can be viewed and analyzed on-screen, printed, emailed, or exported.
Any statement or report displayed in a Report Preview window can be exported. Custom formatted output, such as the Work Order statement, can only be output to a PDF or HTML file. Reports formatted in a more typical column and row fashion can also be exported to an .XLS or .XML format.
Export a report:
-
Click the Export button on the toolbar.
The Export window opens, prompting you to select a format. If the report displayed is custom formatted, only PDF or HTML formats are available.
-
Select your preferred format.
-
If you selected a PDF export, a new browser window opens, displaying the report as a PDF. You can view, print, or save the report as desired.
-
If you selected any other option, your operating system prompts you to indicate if you want to save or open the file.
Choose between two options:
-
Open your file:
