{{Reference guide header|A report presents your data in a specified format and layout. You can design the report template that you want [[Use iReport|using the iReport Designer]] integrated into {{IMSMANG}}. It can then be printed or produced in PDF format. Starting from {{IMSMANG}} v6.0, the printing from inside {{IMSMANG}} is also implemented via iReport.

 

A report is designed to run on your dataset by selecting a target category such as land, activities or organisations. A report target can be narrowed to a saved search.

 

Frequently used reports can be saved. Saved reports will always use the current data when they are launched. You can access your saved reports from the IMSMA Navigation window menu bar for Reports.

==Overview==__NOEDITSECTION__

{{IMSMANG}} and iReport are interacting in two ways. First, the iReport application is part of {{IMSMANG}} and can be started from the IMSMA Control Centre. Second, report templates created in iReport can be imported into {{IMSMANG}}, allowing then to produce reports on IMSMA data, from inside the application. Additionally, the IMSMA saved searches functionality can be used to narrow down the data presented in a report. Two Three steps are required for producing a report from {{IMSMANG}}:* [[Use iReport | Create an iReport template]] with the iReport tool which is an IMSMA administrator task* [[Manage Report Templates Add an iReport Template Definition in IMSMA|Create an iReport template and import it into IMSMAdefinition]]which is done in the Customisation menu* [[Manage Add Reports in IMSMA|Create a report based on a template]] ==Importance of Report Templates for Printing from {{IMSMANG}}==__NOEDITSECTION__which is done in the Reports menu
