How to Add Reports to Controls

Every MyPage Control has an option to add non-system reports. If you view a report on a regular basis, adding the report to the Control is convenient. You may need to scroll to the bottom of the MyPage Add Object window to see the Add Reports link. If you want to use a standard report, copy it to the Report Writer where it will be available for selection from the control.

With the Control in Add or Edit mode:

  1. Click the Add Reports link in the Reports grid.
  2. Click the check box of all reports you want to add to this Control.
  3. Click Save on the Add Linked Report popup.
  4. Click Save on the MyPage Add Object popup.
  5. Click Save on the WebTMA toolbar.

In View mode, an Open linked report BtnOpenLinkedReport icon displays on the right side of the Control title bar. If you add a single report to the Control, WebTMA generates the report automatically when you click the icon. If you have selected several reports, click the icon to select from a list of your reports.

This option is different from the Report List Control. For Report List, the report names you select make up the body of the Control and display as list of hyperlinks.

BtnNoteTextWhen the Query Type is Report, WebTMA filters the list and does not show Private reports unless the logged-in user is the Owner, i.e., the person who created the report and marked it private.
