Run a Report from a Saved Template

You may already be familiar with creating a report by running a saved report template. If not, try this introductory exercise:

1. Select Utilities then Standard Reporting then Reports and then Run. You will see a File Browser, showing the contents of the directory REPORTS. Select the TEMPLATES sub-directory.

2. Select the report template pipe_mto.tmp and select Open. You will see the Report Details form, with the following options:

   • Filename

     If you specify a filename, the report will be sent to the given file in your working directory. If you leave the text box empty, the report will be sent to the screen.

   • Hierarchy

     Give a list of elements. The report will be output for all the elements given, and all the elements owned by them.
