Using the Waiting List Configurations ReportBuilder







Previous Topic  Next Topic 

To generate and save a Waiting List Configurations ReportBuilder report that can be re-run in the future, to generate a single-use report, or to use and/or update an existing report format to generate a report, complete the following steps:

    1. Click Administration from the left-hand menu, and then click Builders & Tools.  The Builders & Tools fly-out menu is displayed.
    2. Click Waiting List Configuration.  The Waiting List Configuration index page is displayed.

    1. Click Waiting List Configurations ReportBuilder from the left-hand menu.  The Waiting List Configurations ReportBuilder Settings page is displayed.

    1. Use the Select a saved report format drop-down options at the bottom of the page to specify whether you will be generating the report from scratch or using a previously saved report format.  Available choices are to:

  Use a previously saved report format - To generate the report using a previously created and saved format, select that format from this drop-down.  When using this method, you can immediately generate the report without changing any settings.  Alternately, you can first review and modify the settings of the format by checking off the available Provide option to modify settings of saved report format checkbox.

  Start from scratch, without using a previously saved report format - To create your own report format for single-time use or for saving and later re-use, leave the saved report format drop-down blank.

  NOTE: If you (or another user) have previously saved a default report format for this ReportBuilder and program, that format is pre-selected here.  Make changes to the selection as needed, or leave it at its default value.

    1. Click CONTINUE.

If you are using an existing report format and have NOT chosen to view/modify the settings of that format, you are now taken directly to the report page.  Continue with step 13.

In all other instances, the Options page is displayed.  Continue with step 6.

    1. The Options page contains a list of available report variables grouped by type under "Waiting List Configurations." These variables represent data collected as part of the waiting list configuration process. 

  NOTE: A section for "Date Parts" - common to all ReportBuilders that have date variables available for selection - is also included on this page.  It is intended to allow for greater flexibility of reporting around dates; for example, giving you the option to report out on a month as either a number (1) or a written month (January).

Click the checkbox next to each variable to be included in the report, and/or use the available Check All options as needed.

    1. Click CONTINUE.  The Report Options - Continued page is displayed.
    2. Configure the options in the "Filter Options" portion of the page as necessary to adjust the scope of the report contents.  Set the "Show Individual Detail" and/or "Summary Tables" options to adjust the way in which the contents are displayed.

  TIP: Individual detail report options and/or summary table selections must be set before the report can be generated.  For more information on using the various report options, please click here.

    1. To save the report settings so that this report can easily be re-run in the future, click SAVE REPORT FORMAT.  The Save Report Format dialog box is displayed.

  TIP: If it is not necessary to save the report format and you wish only to view the report contents, please skip to step 12.

    1. Configure the fields and options on this dialog box to indicate the specifics of how the format should be saved.

  TIP: For more information on using the save report format options, please click here.

    1. Click Save Report Format.  The report format is saved and the Report Options - Continued page is re-displayed.
    2. Click DISPLAY REPORT.  The report is generated and displayed on the Waiting List Configurations  ReportBuilder page.
    3. At this time individual detail and/or summary table content can be hidden or sorted as needed.  The report can also be printed or exported to Microsoft Excel.  For more information on working with ReportBuilder report contents, please click here.

  TIP: When working with report data, please keep in mind that when a report is long enough to require you to scroll down the page to view all of its content, the header row of the data table (individual detail and/or summary) "freezes" at the top of the page.  Similarly, when printing a report that covers more than one page, the header row of any tables split between pages is shown at the top of each page.

The process of generating a Waiting List Configurations ReportBuilder report is now complete.
