Report Definition New

To create, modify, and query for your report definitions, TMS included a standard form for the Reports module. In this topic, we are going to detail the fields you see on the Report Definition standard form, when you are in Report Definition New.

Main Tab

The Report Definition form has only one tab when you are in New mode (from the menu bar, Report Definitions > New).
