Report Wizard

Use the Report Wizard to select parameters for a report, run the report, and save the report.

The Report Wizard guides you through the process of defining various report parameters — criteria for calculating subtotals, calendar sets, report formats, and others. The wizard pages that you see depend on the report you select.

Each report has properties that are used as defaults when you run a report using the wizard.

Some reports have no parameters to be defined, aside from selecting the structure (file) and report. These types of reports are already predefined to look at a specific set of criteria.

Cobra has two types of reports:

  • Reports that give you direct control over the appearance and contents of the report, such as the CrossTab and 533 reports
  • Reports that have predefined parameters, such as the Access Report, Class, and BB_Log

After the report finishes processing, Cobra displays the report in Excel.
