  • To add a metric, select Select for that metric in the grid. You can select as many metrics as you want for a single report.

  • To remove a metric, clear the Select check box for that metric.

  • To move a metric, click in the row for the metric and click or to move it up or down in the list. Metrics appear on the report in the order they are listed on the Metrics tab.

Metric Name This column displays the standard metric name.

The metric name is not the metric heading for the report. Heading (described below) display the default metric heading. If you want a different heading for the metric, enter it in Heading.

Heading Enter the heading that is displayed on the report for the metric.
Format For date, currency, and number columns, Format displays the format in which the metric value appears on the report.

To change the format, click in Format and click to open the Format dialog box.

Type This column displays the type of column: Standard or Calculated.
Left margin 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.

Enter 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, GovWin Capture Management 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, GovWin Capture Management 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.
