User Reports

Question

Can a report be created using an existing query in release 6.8 PL27 SP01 without extensive development. In other words is there a standard feature in Business One where I can take an existing query from the query manager and create a report from that?

Hi Izak,
You create a report thru the Query Generator functionality.
Now when you creat the report using this functionality after you have executed the report below there is a save button when you click on this it will open the save Query Window ...here you will ahve to mention the quey name and the Query category. the query category is to chosen by clicking on the list of the Query categories below. Also if you want to craete a new category go into manage categories give category name and give authorization groups and click OK. YOu can save your query in any of the categories you have created.
Now in order to print the Query you have created you will have to follow the following steps:
1. Go to Tools - Queries  - Query manager Click on the category and click on create report.
2. Now open the Query Print Layout also theu the same path as above
3. Double click on the report for which you want to create the PLD. This will open the PLD settings window.
Hoep this helps.
