When you go to the main menu and choose 'Reports', you'll see a list of subject areas about which you can get information from QuickFill's reports. When you select any one of these areas, you will see a list of actual reports that you can run with QuickFill.
Each report has an individualized screen that allows you to filter the publications, codes and dates that are reported. After selecting the filter options you want, click the 'OK' button to run the report. When the report has completed you will be given a choice of printing the report or viewing it on your screen. As an alternative to running the report immediately you can queue the report so that it is run overnight with other jobs. Click here for details on options for running reports.
Unless you delete them, all reports are saved so that you can print or view them again at a later time. To print saved reports use 'Print…' on the 'File' or 'Reports' menu.
QuickFill includes a copy of the filter you used to generate a report as the final page (or pages) of the report. This is handy if you have questions, later on, about exactly what selections were used for a particular report.
If you have purchased and installed custom report programs, they will appear under the 'Custom reports' menu item. A custom report will only appear as a menu option if it is compatible with the version of QuickFill you are running. If a custom report disappears from the menu after installing a new version of QuickFill, either you forgot to install the updated version of the custom program or we forgot to send it to you. If you cannot find the correct version of the program, please contact Technical Support.
The Reports menu offers the following commands:
