Edit Report Setup
After selecting the reports you wish to view and clicking Search, you are given a list of reports of that type. Click on the report name (blue link) to edit the parameters for that report.
You can download the Jasper Report Template and Jasper Report File to modify the report locally (using iReport) and then upload the report again to replace it. You can also upload a header image (such as your school logo) to be appended to this report.

Other custom reports can be assigned to specific pages in the Associated Screen section. |
