Identify the type of report

When you identify the type of report, you either create a printed report or
a data export report.

Generating a report

Creating a printed report

A printed report is a report that uses CC MIS to format the report. You may
request reports that contain Totals Only or reports that contain Data and To-
tals. The Totals Only reports are useful when you do not need to show sup-
porting information.

Creating a data export report

A data export report is a report that can be used by a commercial spreadsheet
software package. By creating a data export report, you create a file of data
records that is output to a printer or a PC. The file lists the title of the
report and contains detail data only; it does not contain column headings nor
column totals. When you generate a report, you can print it or have the out-
put sent to your terminal for display.

Printing reports

When you print a report, you can direct it to a specific printer or to the
default printer defined in your profile. A different printer may be defined
for graphic or tabular reports. If you have the local print feature, the print
goes to your local printer.

Viewing reports at your terminal

When you select screen as your output device, the report goes to your ter-
minal. After it is complete, it may be viewed by double-clicking the report
status icon on the Main window.
Note: You may need to size the viewing box so you can see the report in its
entirety.

Requesting the report

After you define the report format, the scope of the data, and the output de-
vice, you may request the report, or if you have system administrator abili-
ties, schedule the report.

Scheduling a report for printing

After you define the report, the report can be attached to a schedule and
printed at a later time. You must have access to system administrator (Ad-
min) abilities, schedule the report.
Note: Scheduled reports must have the print device set to a printer not to the
screen. Otherwise, the printing of the report defaults to the customer options
default printer.
