Customize Report Columns

Feature Summary

Customize Report Columns lets you choose exactly which columns appear in a report, and in what order — on screen and in the PDF and Excel exports. Show only the data you care about, surface your own custom asset attributes alongside the standard columns, and save the layout so scheduled reports arrive the same way on every run.

How to Use

Note!

If you leave “Customize Report Columns” unticked, the report runs with its standard default columns. Turn it on whenever you want to add, remove, or reorder columns.
