The General tab contains options specific to the selected report. Use the General tab to rename the report, set report-specific options, save sets of options for use in future Reporting sessions, apply an existing set of saved options, or restore default options.
For example, the General tab for the Project Summary report contains options that you use to summarize data, report at billing rates, and display overhead amounts, direct expenses, and unposted time.
This table contains options that display on the General tab for most or all reports. See individual report descriptions for options and fields specific to a particular report.
