Previewing report output with limited or no data

After you drag a report topic on to the Ad Hoc Reporting palette, you can view a sample report output.

From the Run Report menu, click Preview with Limited Data or Preview with No Data to view a sample of the report.
- Preview with Limited Data—Displays a subset of the data for the ad hoc report you created.
- Preview with No Data—Displays the columns that you added to the Ad Hoc Reporting palette, populated with sample data.

For each option, the following appears in the Ad Hoc Reporting workspace:

A jagged (torn-page look) top edge.
A header with:
- The report title that you created.
- If you clicked Preview with Limited Data, a Limited data label.
- If you clicked Preview with No Data, a Data is turned off label.
A footer with:
- The date when the preview was created.
- The page number.
- The time when the preview was created.
- A Run once with all data link, which allows you to run the report with all the data you added.
