General tab (all reports)

The General tab defines the report name, title, and description and displays the data type and report type (tabular, cross tab, summary, or alert). The General tab is the same for each report type. Below is a sample of the General tab.

 

In this field:

Do this:

Report Name

The name appears on the user-defined reports log.

Report Title

The title appears on the report itself. By default, the field is populated automatically with the report name and is editable.

Description

Description is optional.

Data Type, Element, and Report Type

Automatically populated from the options selected during the creation of the report.

Enable for Integration

Selecting this option flags the report as eligible for integration through web services (uLink). Contact Oracle Customer Support for more information about web services integration and uLink. This option is available for project-, shell-, and company-level reports only.

When the checkbox is selected, the integration icon appears in the UDR log next to the report name.

Note: Because web services uses the report name to identify reports, each report marked for integration must have a unique name. If there are two reports with the same name, only one of those reports can be marked for integration. This is true even if you cannot see the other report with the same name. For example, another user has created a report with the same name, for which you do not have view permission, and marked it for integration.

Default Time Zone

This option allows you to choose the default time zone that will be used where time stamps appear on the report (such as data/time data elements). There are two options:

Click the pull-down and choose a specific time zone in which to display date/time information in the report at runtime. Use this option when you want all instances of the report to display results in a fixed time zone, for example, the project location.
You can also choose to default to user’s time zone. When this option is chosen, users in different locations will see report results that reflect their own time zone.

Note: For scheduled reports, all users will get the same report results. If the user time zone option is chosen, then the report owner’s time zone is used.
