Select Reports to View, Print, or Export

On entry to Reports from the side navigation menu, the Reports tab will be active. However, before outputting reports, begin by reviewing the other two tabs in the tab header:

Optional menus on these tabs control how the reporting will be generated, by applying Filters to compile specific data and selecting Fields to display (by report), respectively.

Once the Filters and Report Settings have been reviewed or are in place, return to the Reports tab. Here, the displayed list, organized by Report Group, will be based on permissions, as managed by your balanceTRAK Administrator.

Before generating the reports, some additional granular settings can be addressed, as outlined below.

If HTML is selected, reports will be displayed in a new browser window, one page at a time, with navigational tools available.

  • Deselect any selections by clicking the None link at the top of the page

Once one or more selections are made, click the [Export] button. The Report(s) will be exported, using Reports > Export Settings. You will be prompted to open or save the file(s), once exported.

Note: Depending on the browser or security settings, you may not be able to proceed with downloading the file. If this occurs, adjust the browser settings, or use a link that will appear on the page.
