How to save view, order, search definition in the designed report?

You can print reports in two ways:
1. From the Library Administrator
2. From the Table** (for example, the library catalog table)
Use the first method when you frequently print the same reports with a consistent layout and group of records. Use the second method when you need to print reports that have a predefined layout but contain different content.

When you plan to print reports from the Library Administrator, do the following: In the report window, use "Save with View" to preserve the sorting criteria, as well as the search filters that define the list of items in a report.

Define the layout of your report (select data fields, set the widths, select fonts, page margins and some other report options).
Select Save with View option.
Click Save Report.
Use Save with View to save the sort criteria and the list of displayed items in a report definition.

All saved report settings are used when you run the report from the Library Administrator.
When you run a predefined report from the data display window, the predefined report is using the current sort or record display options.
