Deleting Additional Reports

Delete Additional Reports that you don't use.  To do so:

  1. Select Tools > Reports > Delete Additional Report.  
  2. Select the Sort Option:
  • View-Natural Order - sorts reports by record number with the newest reports at the bottom of the list.  Select this option if you want to delete a report you've created recently.  
  • View-Name Order - sorts reports by Report Name (or Report Area).  Select this option if you want to delete reports in a given Report area (e.g. you want to delete Mailing Label reports that you don't use).
  1. Check the Del box on all reports you want to delete.
  1. Click the Done button.

The report is marked for deletion and will be removed when you Pack the system.  

Deleting during Report Modification

You also have the ability to delete an additional report* when saving modifications to it.  This is most useful if you've made a test report that you now want to delete.  However, you can also use it to preview additional reports and delete those you don't want.  

Note:  the report must be open in Modification mode (i.e. you must have checked the Modify Report box on the Report Options window) to use this option.

To delete a report while in Modification mode:

  1. Close the Report Modification screen by selecting File > Close or by using the shortcut key:  Ctrl+F4.  
  2. Click the Yes button on the Save Changes window.  
  3. The Saving Modifications window opens.  To delete the report, click the Delete button.  
  4. Confirm the delete procedure by clicking the Yes button on the Confirmation box.  
  5. Click the Done button to close the Saving Modifications window.  

 

The report is marked for deletion and will be removed when you Pack the system.

*Note:  you CANNOT delete a default report.
