Creating a reporting page

If you can't find the report you want in a FAST application, you can create your own reporting page based on a SQL query. Using the fields in the query, you can select the filter options and columns you want to use in the report. Creating the page is a straightforward process using the wizard. In Number 2 (below) the instructions have been broken into sections and correspond with each step in the wizard.

Required roles:

You must have a specific role to create a reporting page. The role is created by your institution—if you are not sure if you have been granted the role, check with the administrator for the FAST application.

To create a reporting page:

On the Queries menu, select Page Builder, then Create Reporting Page.

Click Start. These are the steps in the wizard, with detailed instructions.
Enter Page Details for a New Reporting Page
Select Your Query for a Custom Reporting Page

Select Data Sort Order on a Custom Page
Select Filters and Datagrid Columns
Setting up Filters on a Custom Reporting Page
Setting up Data Grid Columns on a Custom Reporting Page

Before the page can be used, it must be approved.
