The Custom Reporting is a three part process:
- Create A Form Relationship This defines the relationship between the data in the system. It is intended for a relatively advanced user that has some understanding on how the data is related.
- Create A Report Choosing, a form relationship, this specifies the data fields for a report as well as the limits allowed for the various views of the report. It is intended for a data manager. Only a moderate understanding of the way the data is related in the system is required. It is in this step that generates the cached 'zebra_XXXX' report tables.
- Create A Report View. This is intended for all end user's that might need to create a different view of a report. For example, it would be useful for someone who needs to generate monthly reports for different slices of the data.
