Report Type

This field indicates which report engine is to be used to generate the report.

The options include these:

  • DATAVIEW: The internal DataView functionality and a new "Dynamic Reporting Service" are to be used as the engine for the report.
  • FORM: The internal engine associated with the Report-type form is used.

On the Background Task Definitions form, use this field to specify the report type for the selected report.

On the Background Task History form, this field is read-only.
