Step-By-Step Tutorial:
  1. Select the reporting tab
  2. Select the three dots to the right of the report you wish to modify
  3. Select Copy
  4. A copy of the report will now show below the original, click on the copy to edit
  5. You then can edit the report as necessary
  6. Once you're happy with your edits, you can run or save the report. By selecting Run, you are able to view the changes you've made and come back to edit the report if desired. By selecting Save you are saving the adjustments to the report, thus making the edits the default.
  7. If you choose to Run the report, next set the parameters for the report and select Run
  8. Once your report is generated, you can continue to export (downward pointed arrow) or go back to editing the report (pencil icon)
Note: if you wish to return to this report without having to recreate the settings, you will want to return to "edit" and then "save"
