Presets ​

Presets let you save the current state of a report grid and reload it later. Everything about how the grid is arranged is captured - column order and visibility, sort order, row grouping, pivot configuration, and aggregations - so you can get straight to the view you need without setting it up from scratch each time.

Presets are per-report. Each report has its own list of saved presets.

Creating a Preset ​

  1. Run a report and arrange the grid how you want it - apply any grouping, sorting, column changes, or pivots.
  2. Click the Presets button in the report header.
  3. Enter a name for the preset in the Preset Name field.
  4. Click Create Preset.

The preset is saved and automatically becomes the active preset for this session.

Loading a Preset ​

There are two ways to load a preset:

From the criteria section - Select a preset from the Preset dropdown before running the report. The layout will be applied when the report loads.

From the Presets dialog - Click Presets, then use the Load existing preset dropdown to pick one.

Once a preset is active, the Presets button changes to Presets (Active) and is highlighted in green.

Updating a Preset ​

If an existing preset is active and you want to update it with your current grid layout:

  1. Make your changes to the grid.
  2. Click Presets (Active).
  3. Click Save Changes.

This overwrites the saved preset with the current state.

Resetting to Default ​

To clear the active preset and return the grid to its default state:

  1. Click Presets (Active).
  2. Click Reset to Default.

The grid reverts to how it looked before the preset was applied. The preset itself is not deleted.
