The icons in the Report Number column indicate whether the report is saved to the host () or just saved to your PC (). Saving a report just to your PC allows you to have a report that only you can run. This is especially helpful when creating reports for employee accounts.

 

 

Only reports saved to the host can run automatically in the afterhours.

 

You can run any reports listed on this screen, as described in the Actions Menu topic.
