Summary

If you are set up as a Report Operator in your User Profile, then you can use the Details tab page to add a report to a Report Group. You can add the same report to several different report groups or add different setups of the same report to one report group.

Fields

Report Definition Code:

Select a report from the list of standard Report Definitions. Mandatory field. When you tab to the next field, PayGlobal automatically populates the Report and Description fields.

Report, Description:

Automatically populated based on the Report Definition Code value. If you try to add a report that already exists in that report group, then the following message appears:

"There already exists a report called [report code] in this report group."

You need to enter alternative Report or Description values before you can add the duplicate report to the report group

Rank:

PayGlobal orders the reports in the report group based on their rank.

• Unranked reports
• Reports with Rank values beginning with letters (A to Z)
• Reports with Rank values beginning with numbers (0 to 9)

Apply Overrides:

Yes/No field that determines whether PayGlobal applies values on the Overrides tab page when you run the report. On the Overrides tab, the Apply Overrides field controls whether override values are available to the reports in this report group. These two levels of control mean that PayGlobal applies overrides only when both Apply Overrides fields are set to "Yes".

Note: If you use Scheduler to run reports automatically, then reports with Apply Overrides = "No" will use settings in the report rather than the report settings in Scheduler.

Buttons

Create new Report Definition:

You can use this button to create an 'empty' report definition. When you try to Edit Report Settings for the new definition, only the Report Splitting tab appears.

1. Click this button to see the Create New Report Definition form.
2. Enter a Code and Description for the new report definition.
3. Click OK to add this record to Report Definitions.

Model this Report Definition:

You can use this button to create an report definition that is based on a designer report that you opened on the Report Groups | Reports tab. When you Edit Report Settings for the new definition, the settings for the original report appear.

Note: You can use Model this Report Definition in designer report definitions only.
