A report can only be generated on the basis of a previously created template. The list of all available templates is displayed in the lower-left part of the window on the Reports tab. Here you can create, edit, copy, and delete report templates.
The template contains information about which tables and charts will be included in the report, what kind of content will be presented in the tables, the order of the columns in tables and sections in the report, which graphical elements will be rendered on the map, and many other parameters which define the look of the resulting report.
When you point to a report template, the following information is available:
- report template name;
- resource to which it belongs (if you have access to more than one)
- report template type;
- list of tables and charts that it contains;
- list of bound objects.
When you click on a report template, it is selected in the Template field automatically.
The templates in the list are arranged in alphabetical order. When searching for a template, it is convenient to use the dynamic filter. Enter the name of the report or its part into the search field. Additional search parameters are set in the drop-down list, where you can select a particular resource or leave All.
The following actions are available:
or 
: edit or view a report template (depends on your access rights);
: create a new template based on the selected one;
: delete a template (if you do not have enough access rights, the icon is dimmed).
If a template belongs to the resource to which you do not have the Create, edit, and delete report templates access right, you cannot edit or delete this template.
