Save the QBE

  1. View your QBE on the ACTIVE QUERY BY EXAMPLE page.

    The category indicates the reporting aspect to which your QBE pertains.

  3. Use the Description field to enter summary information about the QBE.

    For example, you can describe the type of cases the QBE retrieves.

  4. Click Save As.

    The Save QBE As dialog box appears.

  5. Enter the name of the QBE.

    Note:

    Names cannot contain these characters: % " ' $ ^ ~ , ` / ; | #

    Note that:

    • The page title changes to QUERY BY EXAMPLE.
    • The Active Query Name field in the upper-right corner of the page now displays the name you specified when saving the QBE.
    • The Category and Description fields display the information you entered before you saved the QBE.

      Note:

      The QUERY BY EXAMPLE LIBRARY page lists all the QBEs saved to the system. See Work with Saved QBEs for more information.

      Tip:
