Display Data Using Record or Tabular Layouts

Reports can display using a record or tabular layout.

Most reports use tabular layouts with column headers across the top of the report and data listed in rows beneath the column headers. However, you can use a record layout to reformat the report to remove the column headers and instead display the field names inline with the field’s values from each record returned in the report. An incidents report with the record layout is shown here.

Note: When a report total is included in a report with a record layout, the total is shifted to the left of the column that it totals. In addition, since reports displayed in a record layout do not have columns, some options that apply to columns, such as column width, do not apply.

1. From an open report, click the Display tab.
2. Click Data.
3. To display the report with a record layout, select Display Data in a Record Layout.
4. To display the report with a tabular layout, select Display Data in a Tabular Layout.
