Generate Reports

The Reporter software extracts numerical data from the Results Table and sample and graphical
information from the .wiff file.
You can select a template in the Available Template field.
Tip! For reports that can be generated on a sample-by-sample basis, it may be more
efficient to generate the reports automatically using a batch script during acquisition to
avoid long processing times at the end of the acquisition. For more information about
batch scripts, refer to the Scripts User Guide.
