For some CRM reports, you can specify user-defined sections on the User Defined Sections tab and use the
Section grid column to assign report columns to each section. If you do, you can use
Section Column in the grid on the Columns tab to specify the order of the columns in each section. For example, enter
1 in
Section Column for the first column in the section,
2 for the second column, and so on.
|
Line 1 Heading, Line 2 Heading
|
Enter the heading that is displayed on the report for the column.
The headings can have one line or two. If the heading requires only one line, enter it in
Line Heading 2.
If you enter a heading that is longer than the default heading, you may need to adjust the column width in
Width.
|
Width
|
Enter the width of the column in either inches or millimeters based on which one you selected in the
Unit of Measure field on the Layout tab of the Options dialog box.
If you select inches, enter fractions using decimals (for example 1.00, 1.5, and so on).
By default,
Deltek provides column widths suitable for the default heading text in
Line Heading 1 and
Line Heading 2. If you enter a longer heading, you can adjust the column width.

HTML Formatting

This check box is only available for memo field columns. By default, it is selected.
Select HTML formatting if you want to apply HTML formatting (bold, underlining, colors, and so on) to the contents of the column based on the formatting applied when the text was originally entered in each memo field. If you do not want to apply HTML formatting, clear this check box to print or display the text without any special formatting. You may want to do this if, for example, the formatting was applied inconsistently during data entry or the formatting is unsatisfactory for some other reason.
|
Type

This grid column displays the type of column:
-
Standard: Standard
Deltek column.
-

Left margin indent for first column
|
Enter the number of inches or millimeters that you want the first column indented (offset) from the left margin of the page.
Use either inches or millimeters based on which one you selected in the
Unit of Measure field on the report Options Layout tab.
To determine the position of the first column,
Deltek adds your entry in
Left margin for first column to the entry in
Left Margin on the Layout tab. For example, if you use inches and the
Left Margin contains
1.00 and
Left margin for first column contains
.25,
Deltek prints the report header information with a 1.00-inch margin but prints the first column 1.25 inches from the left edge of the page.
