Report Criteria:

The Report Criteria screen opens when you click on the report name from the main "Reports" section of the software.  This screen is where you tell the system what data you would like it to report on.

• The Time Reports field allows you to select a different report from the drop-down menu.

• Put a check mark in the Launch Report in Separate Window box if you would like the report to open in a new web browser window.  With this option de-selected the report is displayed directly below the Report Criteria section of the screen.

• The Department field allows you to select which departments will be included in this report. Click on the down arrow icon located to the right of the Show Departments header to select departments.
  Note: By default, all department levels will be included in the report.

1. A tree directory structure is displayed, showing each department level that you have entered into the system. Click on the Include Subs option to include the sub-departments of each selected department level.

2. Use the tree directory to navigate to the department levels that you would like to include in the report.

3. Each department is a link. Click on the links to select them for inclusion in the report. Selected departments are displayed in blue. Unselected departments are displayed in black.
