Customization and Features

The Reports Center opens with four default views: Capture, Proposal, Contract, and Admin. You can add, delete, or rename views, and every view is fully customizable.

To resize or rearrange a widget, select the three dot menu in its top right corner. Choose S, M, or L to change its size, or Edit Order to drag your widgets into a new order and then select Done Editing. Copy Image copies the chart to your clipboard, and Remove takes the widget off the view.

Creating and Editing Views

Select the pencil icon next to the view names to edit your views. Click a view name to rename it, select the trash can to delete it, or select + to add a new view. Select the check mark when you are done. To open a view first every time you visit Reports, select it and then select the pin icon. Your pinned view is saved in your current browser.

Exports

To export your current view, select the Export PDF icon in the top right corner of the page. This downloads a PDF of the view and all of its widgets. The red Reset Layout icon next to it resets every view back to the default layout. You are asked to confirm first, because this cannot be undone.
