Creating Custom Reports in Report Explorer
You can only create custom reports from scratch in the Report Explorer. Unlike creating and modifying a copy of an existing report, which requires you to work with the same data fields as the original report, you can start from an entirely blank report in the EventPro Report Designer.
1.
Select Reports | Report Explorer from EventPro’s main menu.
2.
Select the Report Category in which you want to create the new report. You cannot add a new report to a hard-coded category. You must add the new report to the Custom Reports category or a category you created.
3.
Click the New button in the upper right corner.
4.
The Report Item [New] window appears. Enter the Report Name, and any other information you require in the Sub Menu, Description, Communication Reference, Sort Order and Hidden fields.
5.
Click Save. The new report will appear in the Report selection grid.
6.
Click on the new report and click the Design button. The EventPro Report Designerappears.
7.
The easiest way to understand how to create a report is by way of examples. These instructions will guide you through creating a couple of example reports, starting with a simple list and adding more complex elements as we progress.
