VCU Reporting Center - Reports Output and Download

Updated 

Environment

VCU Reporting Center

Solution

Output

Report output is displayed either in the right-hand window of the Stored Processes webpage, or in a new browser window.

If displayed in a new browser window, the window (unless closed) is reused for all report runs.

 CAUTION: If you minimize the report output window and then run another report you may not realize the report is completed and the output is in the minimized window. 


Excel and PDF Download Options

Internet Explorer 8 Automatic Prompting for Downloads must be enabled. This feature is enabled by default for Local Intranet sites in Internet Explorer.

Rather than enabling this feature for Internet or Trusted Sites, add the Reporting Center to Local Intranet with the browser logged into the Reporting Center navigate to: Tools > Internet Options > Security > Local Intranet > Sites > Advanced > Add. 

 NOTE: If you do not wish to change your internet settings, hold down the CTRL key while exporting to Excel/PDF. You must continue holding the CTRL key until the export process is complete.
