Custom report formats are used to display information from the database in a more appealing format. This can include shipping labels, driver manifests, reports, etc. Custom report formats can be designed from the ground up or created by copying and editing an existing report using ActiveReports.
If modifying an existing report, CXT Software recommends creating a copy of the report and make changes to the copy. There is no way to revert changes and no historical log. |
