Formatting
Do you want to delete fields from an existing report? Or change fonts or colors? Maybe you need to add lines or boxes to your reports? Attend this session to learn how to format reports so that they look exactly the way you want them to. Also, learn to organize your reports so the information you need is right at your fingertips. Learn to sort, filter, and group data so that it is displayed properly and find out how to perform calculations using summary and grand total fields.

Creating Formulas & Charting
Formulas serve many purposes, such as calculating numeric values and comparing information. In this session, you will gain an understanding of when to use formulas and which types to use. You will learn how to create simple formulas, as well as ones that will ‘flag’ specific data so it stands out. Plus, learn how to display your data in different chart formats.

Adding & Linking New Tables
Find out how to add new fields to your reports and ensure that the customization you used in LDRPS will show automatically on the report. Plus, how often do you find that you want to include information on a report that is contained in LDRPS, but that it is not automatically included? If this information is from a different LDRPS table, you will need to link the table to your report. Find out how to do this in order to get the correct information to show in your reports. And have you inserted OLE objects such as maps to alternate locations or employee photos into the LDRPS database? Learn how to bring these objects into the reports using Crystal.

Editing & Adding Subreports
You may want to edit or create reports that contain information from two separate LDRPS tables. For example, maybe you want to see information relating to employees and the plans they are in and include the attributes that are assigned to each employee. In order to do this, you must use sub-reports. In this session you will learn how to edit and insert fields into sub-reports as well as how to add and link new sub-reports.
