Standard Report Properties

All reports use a set of standard properties for basic information, such as name and description, and for setting controls such as email recipients and required signoff.

Note: The Name field is required for all reports; the other standard properties are optional.

Enter or edit the standard properties information as required when creating or editing a report.

Field

Description

Name

Name of the report.

Description

Brief description of the report.

Require Signoff

Require signoff on the results of this task.
Reports that require sign off generate work items and email notifications that are assigned to the designated signers. Signoff decisions are stored with the report results for tracking purposes.

Previous Result Action

Previous result actions determine how subsequent runs of this report affect existing report results.
Delete – overwrite the previous report results with the new information.
Rename Old – append a numeral to the name of the old report result.
Rename New – append a numeral to the name of the new report result.
Cancel – cancel the new run of the report if a report result with the same name exists.

Allow Concurrency

Enable two identical reports to run at the same time.
If enabled, allow concurrency appends a numeric value to the name of the report that started second. If disabled, the second report is canceled and an exception is sent to the requester.

Email Recipient

Specify a user or workgroup to whom an email should be sent when the report is finished running.
Sending an email notification removes the need to log in to the product to check the progress of long-running reports or reports that are scheduled to run periodically.

Email Attachment Format

Select either or both checkboxes for PDF or CSV to have the report include an attachment copy. Clear the checkboxes to not receive an attachment.

Don't email empty reports

If the report is empty, do not email the report.

Maximum results to display

Set the maximum number of results to display in the results report. This option is available on a limited number of reports.

Scope

Set the scope for this report.
Scope control access. Only identities that control the scope specified can see the results of this report.

The scope information is not available for all reports. For those reports that support this feature, the Administrator must enable and configure the scope option.
