You can create a task by clicking on 'Add Task'.

When in the Add Task screen, first select a Process from the drop down This will be the main report type that will display.

Then select a Variant with a default value can be changed to modify the way the main report displays. This is helpful when a report sent to management differs slightly from the one sent to the office, or the field. Setting a variant modifies the items within a report without changing it entirely.


Next a description can be added that only the Admin will see. It will not appear on the email sent, that will appear as 'Send As'.

Choose a time-frame that the report will be sent out in. Daily, Weekly, and Monthly are options for a report that needs to be sent out multiple times.

Alternatively a one time report can be set as 'Once', but take note that this will only run one time and then be erased from the task list.

A start time will indicate when the report turns on and sends, this will remain the same unless changed.


The report options allowing a report to be sent as an XLS or a PDF.

A Logo Image can be added to reports in the system, if ever requesting a custom report please specify if a logo image is needed. Most reports do not have this feature.
