Enter parameters when running reports

When you run reports in Aspen, you view them on-screen before you send them to a printer. This way, you can verify that the report contains the data you want in the appropriate format.

To enter parameters when running reports:

1. After you click a report name on the Reports menu, a pop-up appears.

   Note: Parameters vary from report to report, but generally require a date range, sort order, and output format.

2. Type the date range for the report, or click the calendars to select the dates.
3. Select how you want the report to sort the results.
4. Select one of the following report formats:
• Adobe Acrobat (PDF)
• Web Page (HTML)
• Microsoft Excel (XLS)
• Comma-separated values (CSV)

5. Do one of the following:
   1. Click Run. The system displays the report in the format you select.
   2. Click Save and Run. The system displays the report in the format you select, and will use these parameters the next time you run it.

6. Check the results of the report. Then, print it.
