1. Make sure the custom report category you want your created custom report to appear under is highlighted (i.e., Private Queries, Shared Queries).
2. To start a new custom report, choose one of the following options:
· Click Add on the Ribbon.
· Right-click in the listing pane, and select Add from the drop-down menu that appears.
3. A Create New Custom Report dialog box will open.
4. Enter a title for the custom report in the ReportName field.
Note: Use specific names for your custom reports, because if same-named reports are shared, the user will only see the first query with that name.
5. Make sure the Report Category is correct. If you want to create a new Category, type it in this field.
6. In the Report Description text box, identify the type of custom report and/or its purpose.
Note: The Report Description field can be left blank. The Report Name and Report Category fields must be filled in.
