How to Modify Canned Reports

This function is available in both Work Week Assignment (WWA) and Work Week Scheduling (WWS).

Canned reports are pre-built reports available within the WWS and WWA. They are called “canned” because they are already created and can only be modified — not built from scratch. And unlike the Reports screen (which supports ad hoc reporting and automated email distribution), canned reports can only be printed or saved as a PDF.

Users can customize canned reports by adjusting layout, headers, data, and columns.

  1. Confirm the correct crew and T-week are selected.
  2. Click File > Modify Reports.
  3. The Modify Canned Reports dialogue box appears. Choose a report to modify using the drop down.
  4. Select the create icon.
  5. Enter the name of the modified report and determine if it’s Portrait or Landscape.
  6. Add the columns you would like to see on the report.
  7. Modify the Header and Data sections of the report.
  8. Observe modified report. Select the X when finished.
  9. Go to File and select Print. When canned reports appear, select the new modified report.
  10. Observe new modified report in relation to the original report.
