Saving a report

You can save reports as .prt files and CSV files.

The .prt file (or print file) is the format most reports are in when first processed. It can be useful to save the print file to a location that is different from the default location that the print file is stored in. Then, if you resubmit the report, the original print file is not overwritten.

CSV files are comma-separated value files. This indicates that the data in the file is delimited or separated by commas or other delimiters. It can be useful to save reports in this format because CSV files can be opened by spreadsheet applications.

To save a report as a CSV file

  1. After running the job for a report, click Print Manager.
  2. Double-click the report you must save.

    Alternatively, you can right-click the report and select View from the context menu. The report displays in text format.

  3. Click Create CSV File.

    A File Download dialog box is displayed.

  4. Name and save the CSV file. You can now open it in a spreadsheet application.
