Get the Report Definition

The Report Definition command describes the report items in each report and gives users, administrators, and customer support an important troubleshooting tool.

Note: You cannot change the report properties.

Steps
  1. Open the report that you want in Query Studio.

  2. From the Manage File menu, click Report Definition.

    The Report Properties dialog box appears. It contains a table that lists every filter, report item, and corresponding expression in the report.

    Tip: Click Query Information to bring up a text box containing information about the query that you can send to customer support if needed.
