The following steps will guide you through the key functions of the Reports tab, including searching for reports, running saved reports, and using report icons.
Step 1: Search for reports by keyword
-
Either Create an Ad Hoc report or locate an existing report by entering a keyword and clicking Search.
-
Review results under Available Reports to find matching reports.
Step 2: Run a saved report
Step 3: Use report icons
Report icons appear when you hover over a report name in the Report Library or My Ad Hoc Reports portlet. Icons provide quick actions, though not all icons are available for every report.
- Standard reports display only three icons: preview, add to favorites, and tag.
- Ad Hoc reports may also display icons for creating a one-click report (mouse icon) or a scheduled report (calendar icon).
Helpful tip: Once a report has been run, the mouse and calendar icons appear in the Report Library, allowing you to quickly schedule or save as a one-click report.
