Report Parameters

Options are available to save these parameters for later use. To save a set of parameters, select Save on the Report Parameters dialog screen. To load a saved set of parameters, choose a parameter set from the Load Saved Parameters drop-down list. For certain reports, such as the SQL Server Performance report, an option is available to select multiple sets of parameter values. Select Add to Parameter List to add a parameter set to the selected report.
Exporting Reports
SentryOne Reports are exported in a variety of formats for distribution purposes. After a report is run, from the Report Viewer screen, select the Export icon on the toolbar to export a report.
