Report Writer - Overview

The report writer is a powerful tool that lets you tailor a report by limiting the range of records included and specifying the sort options.  After defining the options, you can save the set of options with a specific name for each set that you design, and then later load the options that you have already defined.

Note:  The Report Writer is only active for reports that are specifically designed to use the Report Writer features.
