Field Description
Report Name You can change the default report name.
Create Activity To create activities in the Calendar/Activities application when you generate the report, select this check box. When you generate the report, Vision displays the Activity dialog box so you can enter the activity information. Vision then creates an activity for each client included on the report.
Grid Type In addition to columns directly related to client records, you can include columns that contain associated data. Use Grid Type to select the set of associated columns you want to include. For example, if you select Contacts, you can include columns for contacts associated with each client.

The available sorting and grouping criteria vary based on the entry in Grid Type. For example, contact-related criteria are available if you select Contacts, while opportunity-related criteria are available if you select Opportunities.

Grid Filter If Grid Type contains Opportunities or Projects, you can use Grid Filter to limit the opportunities or projects included in the report to those for clients classified as one of the following:
  • Client
  • Vendor
  • Both client and vendor
  • Neither client nor vendor

How Vision classifies the client record depends on settings in the Client Info Center.

Print Final Totals Select this check box if you want a line at the end of the report that shows total amounts for the entire report.
Summarize Client Detail Select this check box to generate a summary version of the report.
Client Hierarchy Lookup If you are using client hierarchies and you want to generate the report for a client hierarchy, select a client in that hierarchy. The report includes the entire hierarchy of which the selected client is a part.

Example: If you select Navy, the report includes Navy and the entire hierarchy associated with Navy. That is, it includes both parent records and child records. If Department of Defense is the parent of Navy, and Navy is the parent of NAVSEA, the following are true:

  • If you select Department of Defense in the Client Hierarchy Lookup, the report includes detail for all clients associated with Department of Defense, Navy, and NAVSEA.
  • If you select Navy in the Lookup, the report shows a header but no detail for Department of Defense and includes complete details for Navy and NAVSEA.
  • You cannot select NAVSEA, because it is not the parent of another client.
