== Create a report from an ad hoc view ==__NOEDITSECTION__
A report can be created from an ad hoc view in two different ways:
<ol>
<li>When [[Creating Ad Hoc Views in MINT|creating and saving the ad hoc view]], click on the '''Save Ad Hoc View and Create Report''' option. A dialog then prompts for a name and location not only for the ad hoc view, but also for the report. As a result, the ad hoc view is then saved as a report in the specified repository location.</li>
<li>Click on '''Create &rarr; Report''' in the top menu and follow these steps:
<ol>
<li>In the '''Create Report''' window, select an ad hoc view to build the report on and click '''OK'''.</li>
<li>The ad hoc view is then displayed as a report that can be saved by clicking on the save icon [[File:Save_icon.png]]</li>
</ol>
</ol>
== Interacting with a report ==__NOEDITSECTION__
If the underlying ad hoc view contains filters, then the end-user can interact with the report by changing the filter criteria. To do so, click on this icon in the top right corner of the report: [[File:MINT_report_filter.png]]. This icon is only enabled in the presence of filters. The '''Input Control''' window is then displayed and allows changing the filter criteria, depending on the filters that are defined in the underlying ad hoc view:
[[File:MINT_report_input_control.png|center]]
Click '''Apply''' to only apply the filter or '''OK''' to apply it and exit the Input Control window.
