reports template

I've tried looking for information on how to add columns to templated reports or how to modify the templated reports.  pretty much got nowhere. 

 

I am looking for how to modify the WIP summary reporting template to add the WO description into the report.   should be a simple thing to do, but I need to add a column field to the reporting template to pull the Job description from the database.   alternatively, if there is a way to modify the report template itself it would be greatly appreciated.

 

looking to add the Job description for each work order into the report where the red Square is located in my picture. 

 

any help is appreciate

Hi there, @Datashack.


Adding a column for the job description to the WIP summary report is unavailable. Though you can export this to an excel file to add the information, let me guide you on how to do it.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Reports menu and choose Jobs, Time & Mileage option.
  2. Select Job WIP Summary1&2 steps.PNG
  3. In the Job WIP Summary window, click the Excel on the toolbar and choose to Create New Worksheet3 steps.PNG
  4. Hit the Export button in the Send Report to the Excel window. 4 steps.PNG
