Displaying Reports

After you define a report in the Query Builder, SQR Production Reporting Studio displays the default report layout in the Layout window.

Use the Layout window to design the layout of your report. In addition to the Layout window, SQR Production Reporting Studio provides additional windows to help with report formatting.

To access a window, click the corresponding tab.

Layout—Displays the report layout. Use the Layout window to insert and position the report contents. When you save a report in the Layout window, SQR Production Reporting Studio saves the report as an SRM file.
Source—Displays the Production Reporting source code for the report. Use the Source window to view or edit the generated Production Reporting code.
Report—Displays the report. Typically, the Report window uses an internal browser to display the report in an HTML format. If you do not want to use the internal browser or if your system does not support it, the Report window displays the report in an SPF format. Use the Report window to view the results of your report as you create it.
Template—Displays a report layout based on a template. Use the Template window to define layout templates that you can use when you create reports.
Note:
The windows that display depend on the type of report opened. For example, if you open an SRM file, the Layout, Source, and Report windows display; if you open an SQR file, the Source and Report windows display; if you open a template, the Template window displays.
