# Reports

DataShed5 provides a number of reports, available in a number of report groups. Reports collect and collate information from various places in the database, and summarise and display that data – possibly with charts and graphs, or even just a list of some of the raw data.

Administrators can customise which users have access to which report groups, so the reports available to a particular user may not match those available to others.

When a report is selected, DataShed5 will load the report and display a parameter/preview screen (highlighted in red above). The number and type of parameters and acceptable values will vary according to the particular report that has been selected. Enter appropriate values in each of the parameter fields, then click the ‘SUBMIT’ button to run the report.

Along the top of the report, and also to the right side, is a number of buttons that facilitate navigation and viewing of the report. Hovering the mouse over the top of any of these buttons will show a pop-up tooltip indicating what the button does. Each button is described below.

The first group (section ‘1’ above) includes buttons that move to the first, previous, next, and last page of the report. The ‘1 of 357’ in the middle of that section in this example indicates that the current page being viewed is page, and that there are 357 pages in total. Clicking this pull-down box allows the user to select a particular page and jump directly to that page.

The buttons in section ‘2’ allow the user to toggle the ‘multi-page’ view mode. The example image above shows only a single page of the report, toggling the multi-page view shows multiple pages and allows scrolling up/down the pages. Next to that is the zoom out (-) and in (+) buttons, and a list that allows selecting a zoom percentage or a whole-page / page-width zoom setting.

Section ‘3’ contains the buttons that allow the user to print the report, and allows the user to select any locally accessible printer as the target. Another button allows the report to be downloaded to the local computer as a PDF, XLSX, DOCX, or CSV format file. The magnifying glass button in this section allows the user to search for a particular text string in the report.

At the right side of the report screen (section ‘4’ above) are several more buttons. Selecting the ‘Funnel’  icon allows the modification of one or more of the report parameters, before re-executing the report with the updated parameter values. The ‘Settings’ icon   allows the user to modify the export options, these options will modify the behavior of the ‘Export’ (Download) button in the Section 3 buttons. The ‘Search’   icon is that same as the similar icon in section 3, allowing the user to search for particular text within the report. Finally, the ‘Document Map’   icon shows logical separation points of data within the report (eg. where data for each drillhole begins) and allows the user to jump to the page of the report where that section begins.

The ‘>’ button at the very top of section 4 will collapse that part of the window, allowing more screen space to view the actual report content. The icons for each option are still visible, clicking any of the icons (or the ‘<’ button) will restore that part of the report viewer again.
