Configuring Report Settings

QAD 2017 Enterprise Edition > User Guides > Reporting Framework > Running Reports > Configuring Report Settings

Use Report Settings to customize how certain elements of data will be displayed in the rendered report.

In the Filter screen, click Settings on the toolbar to bring up the Report Settings dialog box.

• Under the General tab, specify whether to display search criteria in the report, and if yes, whether to display this information in the report header or footer.

Use the Language pull-down to choose the language in which to display the report. When a user changes the report language setting, it only affects the report currently being run, and will remain in effect until that report program tab is closed. Other program tabs will not be affected by the report language change.

Report Settings: General

• Under the Date tab, select a format for the dates to be displayed in the report and specify a date separator. You can see a sample of the date format you specify at the bottom of the dialog box.

Report Settings: Date

• Under the Decimal tab, specify how numbers will be displayed in the report, including decimal separator, decimal digits, grouping separator, and grouping format. A sample number is displayed at the bottom of the dialog box.

Report Settings: Decimal

Note: After you manually format a date or number field in a report in Report Designer, the reporting format settings will no longer apply to these fields.
