New Report

Sometimes you repeatedly need a report which requires considerable setting up. You setup the formatting, the selection screen, and the sort screen. Each can be saved and recalled, but what you'd really like is to have your own tab in the report menu and simply select your report fully customized. Timeslips does let you do this. Here's how:

1. Make a new group for the report

Pulldown reports menu and select report
Anywhere in the menu, right click and select Edit Groups

Select NEW and give it a name. This creates a new tab for the new group.
Use the move up and move down buttons on the right to place it where you want within the tabs

2. Now that you have your special tab (group), we'll add a report

Notice that your new My special reports tab is there
Click on the plus sign

To create your report options just cruise on through the wizard helper clicking NEXT when done

1. Use the Use the report I pick below option
2. Select the report you want
3. If you are unsure, the About This Report button is VERY useful
Setup your Filters
Setup your Sort order
Setup you Formats
Setup your output options
Add the report to your menu with
1. A new Description
2. Select your group

That's all there is to it. Now you can run your report simply by selecting it off your menu.
