Creating reports, report templates, and style sheets

Creating and defining reports are separate processes.

You use the Create Report dialog to:

Create reports, report templates and style sheets.
Create reports that are based on templates and style sheets.
Create copies of existing reports.

Note: If you select Choose template in the Create Report dialog and select a template, Step 3 of the Report Wizard is displayed. You can also access the Report Wizard from Extras > Report Wizard (New Report).

Note: See Creating a report from a report template.

The options of the Create Report dialog vary according to whether you are creating a report, report template, or a style sheet.

Right-click the folder in the Report Catalog in which to create a report and select New > Report.
Right-click the Report Templates folder in the Report Catalog and select New > Report Template.
Right-click the Style Sheets folder in the Report Catalog and select New > Style Sheet.
