QUESTION:

Why would a user want to use the Save Report option?


RESPONSE:

The Item Attachment report is the second most run report in the SchoolCash Catalog. To run this report, users need to select many filters, including the option to select specific date filters. Visit this article How-To Schedule an Item Attachment Report


You can save your filters for the item attachment report: If you run the same report regularly, you can save time by saving any of the filters that you would like for that report.


The maximum number of saved reports is set to 10.


Share your reports: The saved reports are shared with all other school users who have access to 'saved' reports. This is a user management flag. You can easily create a saved report. Any user in your school, who has access to 'saved' reports, can run it.
