Building a Custom Report
Step 1: Select Your Display Fields
Before filtering your data, you must decide which information should appear as columns in your final report.
- Navigate to the Fields to Display section.
- Select the category of information you need (e.g., Contact Detail).
- Check the boxes for the specific data points you want to see (e.g., First Name, Last Name, Date of Birth).
Step 2: Apply Filters
Filters allow you to narrow down your results so you only see relevant records.
- Category Filter: Use the blue bar filter to select the type of contact you are looking for (e.g., Client, Payer, or Provider).
- Filter Criteria: Use the rows under the Filter Criteria section to refine your search further.
- You can use up to five different criteria simultaneously to create a highly specific report.
- Logic Selection: For each criterion, use the Equal dropdown box (or other logical operators) to define the relationship between the field and the value.
Step 3: Generate the Report
Once your fields are selected and your filters are set, click the View Report button. The system will generate a list based on your specific criteria, which you can then review or export.
