Printing Custom
Reports
Once you have designed a custom report,
you may print it at any time by clicking on Reports in the
menu bar and selecting Custom Reports in the drop-down
menu.
The software will display a listing of your custom reports in
the Print Custom Report window. Click to highlight and
select a report name for printing. Click the OK button to
begin printing your report.

Limiting Data Displayed on
Custom Reports
Whenever you print a custom report, the data for the report will
always be pulled from the data listed on the screen at the time you
run your report. If you wish to limit the data displayed on your
report, you must also limit the data listed on the screen by
using the built-in filters .
If you notice that your custom reports are not showing all of
the data items you expect, you may want to check to see
if a filter is currently being applied.
For example, you are printing a custom report from within the
Deal History tab
which will display a customer's name, address, and the VIN of the
vehicle purchased. You also want this report to to
only show this data for last month's deals. You would need to
first use the filters at the bottom of the screen to first limit
the deals displayed on the screen to show only last months
deals. Once you have only last month's deals listed on the
screen, you can then run and print your custom report. Since
the report pulls data from what is showing on the screen, your
custom report will show the customer's name, address,
and VIN from only last month's deals.
