Report

Reports allow you to automatically generate a series of maps and data and then view, print or export them one by one. A report refers to the sheet and map that the user selects for the report. Each page or graphic of a report contains a modification of the overall representation of the map. This can be either a sub-area or a varied representation of the analyses due to changing data. Reports can influence the content or display of the following objects:

• Maps (especially analyses and the corresponding legends)
• Tables inserted as objects on the sheet
• individual diagrams

Area reports can also be linked to data to generate a table of the data associated with the report page (e.g. the customers in the area). Please note, however, that such data tables are not generated for all output forms of the reports, but only for File > Export > Data > Report and for File > Export > Produce report.

Inserting a Report

To insert a report, select Insert from the menu Other objects > Report or open the control window Objects and drag a Report from the group Other objects per Drag&Drop onto a map. A wizard guides you step-by-step through the various settings and design options of the report.

Report Header

The report header is generated automatically when we create a report. You can change the size, shape and style of the text under its properties at any time. There, under Report Heading, you can define which constant data, such as text elements, geographical data, and other data, should be displayed as text for the report.

It is possible to add a heading later, if the text has been deleted. To do this, right-click on the report in the control window content > Add report heading.

Print or export reports

To Print or Export a report select the report in the corresponding dialog under Scope.
