{{Reference guide header|A report presents your data in a specified format and layout.

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

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. Three steps are required for producing a report from IMSMANG:

Report Examples


The List and Summary window printing are done with iReport templates.
