Report Content/Display

The report content is displayed below all header information in the Report Preview window. The appearance of reports varies considerably based on report content and formatting.

The default presentation for report width is 100%, resulting in defined columns being spread (or wrapped) to fit in the browser window without any horizontal scrolling. You can dynamically adjust column width within a report by dragging a column edge to expand or lessen the column's width. By default, a preference to freeze column headers is enabled, keeping the column headers visible as you scroll down the rows of a report. If there are more columns than can fit in the window, field values wrap to multiple rows. Options on the General > Settings sub-tab allow you to modify this setting.

Similarly, the number of rows presented per page is based on a setting on this same tab (along with a defined Report Preference). The report content scrolls vertically to present additional rows of data. If the report exceeds the number of rows that should be displayed per page, a page control appears in the toolbar that can be used to access additional sections of data.

If the report has been set up with defined smart actions or elements, additional formatting will be displayed. For example, rows could be selectable (and open another window that displays the chosen record) and fields could be editable. Similarly, columns may be defined for special (or conditional) formatting.

Refer to the section on Report Setup for specific instructions on determining report content and layout.
