Saving a report output

If you are displaying a report that you ran from the Report Definitions page, you have the option to save the output so that it can be viewed later without regenerating the report.

1.         On the Display Report page, click Save Output.

The Save Output page appears.

2.         In the Name for Output field, type a name for the saved report. The name does not need to be unique, although Oracle recommends that you provide a unique and meaningful name.

3.         In the Output Description field, enter a description of the saved output that differentiates the report output from entries on the Report Outputs page.

4.         From the Output Category drop-down list, select Ad Hoc or Standard. The application uses the category for organizing reports and the category is not related to report availability. You can include a column showing report categories on the Report Definitions and Report Outputs pages.

5.         Assign the report output to a project.

• To assign the report output to an existing project, click Add to existing project and select from a list of projects associated with objects that you created or that are published to you.
• To create a new project and assign the report output to it, click Add to a new project named and enter a project name.

6.         Click Save.

The application saves the report output. Modification or deletion of the report definition does not affect the saved report output.

Note: The current sort order of a report is not saved as part of the report output.
