On the Print Preview form, click File > Print to send the grid data to your default printer. To export grid data to an Excel spreadsheet, click Export to Excel. When Microsoft Excel opens, use its features to modify, print, or email the grid data, or to save the spreadsheet file locally. To turn on grouping for a grid, click Enable Grouping. When a field displays with the instruction: "Drag a column header here to group by that column," drag and drop column headers into the field, in the sequence that you want them to display. Not all options are available on all grids.

Delete	Click a row and then click this option to delete it.
Alert Rule Name	Select an existing alert rule name or enter a new one. You can change the name of an existing rule. Each rule name must be unique.
Enabled	Select this option to enable the rule. When the alert is active, you can enable only selected rules, without having to delete any unwanted rules. In other words, if the alert is active, then any of its enabled rules can run. If the alert is not active, then none of its rules can run.
Languages	If you use multiple languages, use this column to select the language for this alert. Only employees with the selected language receive the alert. However, if you leave this column blank, all employees receive this alert regardless of their designated language. For example, if you create an email alert for English US and English UK, then only the users that have English US or English UK in the Language field in the Employee Info Center receive that message. The system administrator must set up a separate alert rule for Spanish employees to receive a message in Spanish. The Language field displays <languages selected> if any languages are selected.
