Use Filtered Data to Generate Each Scheduled Report

You can choose to use Filtered Data which composes the report based on a Found Set.

  • The filter values are displayed in the list of fields in this section.
  • When you choose Filtered data for your scheduled report, the data on the report changes every time as matching records are displayed according to the filters you selected.

For example, in the illustration below, the report will be generated to include Billy Hammer's Open work orders in the Demo entity. Every time the report runs, Billy Hammer's open orders will be displayed. However, the orders displayed on each report will be different as Billy Hammer completes work orders and as new ones are opened and assigned to her.

  • The components of the Found Set are automatically gathered when the scheduled report is originally generated.

Use a Fixed Data Set to Generate Each Scheduled Report

You can choose to use a fixed data set which composes the report based on a given set of records.

  • The record values are displayed in the list in this section.
  • When you choose a fixed data set for your scheduled report, the data on the report changes every time to reflect any potential changes to the records you selected.

For example, in illustration below, the report will be generated to include only these work order numbers.

  • If these were originally, open work orders, each succeeding iteration of the report would show that some of the work orders have been completed.
