When a new custom report is created and users want it to appear for all users in SAGE 200 the following process needs to be applied:
A) The Report creator MUST send a link detailing the location of the report (e.g. \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\reporting\custom\reports\nominal\Example_Report.report
B) IT will need to add the report to menus with the following process:
Firstly in SAGE System Administrator:
- Open SAGE System Administrator
- Click on Features
- Expand the folders to the relevant folder for the report (e.g. Features -> Sales Ledger -> Reporting -> Reports
- Right Click on the lowest folder (in this case "reports") and click on Add
- Enter a Name for the New Feature
- In the Feature Properties section (At the bottom), select Targets and click "Add New Feature"
- Enter a Name for the target
- Select Report from the Target Type drop-down menu
- Click the Browse button and select the report
- Click Save
Next in SAGE 200
- Open SAGE 200
- Open the navigation area and select the Menu View
- Click on Edit Menu (the pencil icon)
- Click on the + at the top and select Add New Menu Item
- Enter the Title of the report
- Expand the folders and select the Target you created using the System Administrator
- Click on OK
- Optionally afterwards you can use the up and down arrows to position the menu item in the list.
- When finished Click on the X at the top of the menu to exit Editing and check the new item is in your menu
This completes the process for the new report.
