Developing reports from UDS

When you have added the required UDS to a catalog, you can then use it to develop reports as you like.

To develop a report from a UDS:

1. Make sure the catalog where the UDS locates is opened, then click the New Report Set button on the Standard toolbar.
2. In the New Report set dialog, specify the title and layout of the first report in the report set as required, then click OK.
3. In the Data screen of the report wizard, choose the UDS with which you want to build the report.
4. Follow the report wizard to create the report.
