History List

The History List provides access to view and work with all report output that you have requested. Each report request in your History List provides a hyperlink to view and work with the output. This page includes the standard application toolbar

that includes the drop down task icon menu to provide access to the primary options within REAS. This also includes the navigation pane which may be toggled between expanded and collapsed

(this is currently shown in collapsed mode in the example below). When you click the hyperlink for an item in your History List, the Report Output page is presented.

You are allowed a maximum of 50 reports in the History List at any time. If you reach your limit of 50 reports in the History List, the reports marked as “read” will be deleted first followed by the oldest reports. In addition to the system defined limits, your user account has settings in the Security option of the Preferences setup that specifies how pending requests and reports marked as “read” are handled when you log out of REAS.

The report entries in your History List page includes an icon to identify they Type of output

, the Name of the report

, the current processing Status

, the date and time of the report request

, additional processing Action

options and a checkbox

to flag an item to be removed when you click the Remove button.

You may also right-click a report or document/dashboard in your History list and perform actions such as mark as "unread" after viewing, export the data to a file format or PDF, rename the output or delete the History List entry. Click here for a detailed list of the right-click menu options.

The following output Type icons are used in the History List:

Icon	Description
	Standard grid report output generated manually from one of the report options in Shared Reports, My Reports or while in Design Mode from Create Report.
	Standard graph or grid and graph report output generated manually from one of the report options in Shared Reports, My Reports or while in Design Mode from Create Report. Note: This same icon is used whether report output is only presented as a graph or the report output is presented as a grid and graph.
	Subscription output generated as part of an event-based subscription. Note: The calendar number is the identifier. In the example, a grid report was run. The icon for the type of report is used as the background with the calendar number indicating it was generated as a subscription report.
	Flash-based Document output generated from the Collateral Summary Package option. The output from this option is a collection of reports that are generated at one time and presented as an interactive flash-based document.
	Note: To the left of the icon for the Document there is an arrow. When you click this arrow, it expands the document entry to display one line item for each underlying report. As you click the arrow, the list of reports expands and contracts under the document line item. Although they are listed as separate line items, those individual reports can only be viewed through the document.
