Report Wizard


With Report Wizard you can create a report template, please click  button to open your report wizard. This wizard will help you  to select the information you would like to display in your report and set needed layout.

	Select whether you want to create a Standard Report or a Label Report. Then click . Using this wizard, you can easily create a banded report displaying data in a tabular format. While setting up your report, you'll be able to group data, add totals to your report, apply one of the predefined report styles, etc. This wizard is also useful if you need to print out labels. In this case, you're likely to purchase label paper that meets your particular requirements. Depending on paper supplier and label type, your report will need to generate labels with a specific size and location within paper sheets. With the Label Report Wizard, you won't have to adjust these settings manually, since a wide choice of paper suppliers and their products supported. Simply choose your paper type, and the report is adjusted automatically. After completing the wizard, you get an empty report that clearly indicates label boundaries, and of course, properly positions labels within paper sheets.
	Define the columns which shall be shown in your report. By clicking    the defined columns will be selected for your report, if you click   all columns will be selected for the report. Afterwards click   to get to the next step.
	If you want to group by specific columns you can define these columns here.  Afterwards please click . This page allows you to group data in your report. For instance, if you are displaying car sales information, you may want to keep records corresponding to the same model together. Each set of records with the same model will become a "group" with its own header.
	Define the layout of your report and click  . This page sets the layout of elements in your report. If you haven't applied data grouping, you can specify how data field values are arranged - into a table, one under another, etc. If report data is grouped, you can choose one of the available indentation styles for nested elements. Additionally, this page allows you to specify the page orientation for your report.
	Define a style for the font and click  .
	Give your report a name and click   to end the wizard. After completing the Standard Report wizard, you will get a tabular banded report. Depending on how many wizard steps you complete (you don't necessarily have to go through all the pages), you can apply data grouping, display totals, select one of the predefined style sheets, etc.
