Archived Tab of the Reporting Form (Desktop)
Use the Archived Reports tab to preview, print, or download archived reports. You can also distribute archived reports by email. The option to archive reports is only available if you are using the Standard Edition or Enterprise Edition of Microsoft SQL Server. If you use a different version of SQL Server, the Reporting form does not have a Create Report Archive option or an Archived Reports tab.
Field | Description |
---|---|
Reports drop-down |
Click the drop-down arrow on a grid header to complete any of the following actions:
Not all options are available on all grids. |
Delete | To delete an archived report, select that report in the grid and click this option.
Vantagepoint automatically deletes archived reports based on the number of archive hours specified when each archived report is created. You can also use the Report Administration utility to delete archived reports. |
Refresh | Click this option to retrieve and display the current list of archived reports.
Normally, Vantagepoint displays the current list. However, if you start the archive process for a report and click the Archived Reports tab before that process is finished, the list does not show the newly archived report. If you click Refresh, Vantagepoint updates the list. |
Row selection column | When you click in a row in the grid, the first column of the grid displays to mark the currently selected report. |
Report Name | This column displays the names of the reports. A report name can be the Vantagepoint default name or a name that you or another user specified. |
Created Date | This column displays the date and time that you archived the report. |
Expiration Date | This column displays the date and time that Vantagepoint will remove the archived report. The expiration date and time is based on the number of hours you specified in Archive report output (Hours) when you archived the report. |
Pages | This column displays the number of pages in the report. |
