This page describes a part of the Mobile Dashboard's process for configuring reports. For an introduction to the report configuration process, see Section 5.1, “Introduction To Report Configuration”. For an example of how a report can be configured, see Section 5.28, “Report Configuration Example”. For a general introduction to the online help manual, see Section 1.1, “Mobile Dashboard Online Help Manual Overview”.

You need to provide a name for the report (which will also appear on users' mobile devices), an (optional) description of the report, and a location for the report within your report directory. Reports are organized into folders, within each domain, and may be organized as desired. (These files are stored in the Mobile Dashboard server, not on the user's computer.) Note that empty folders are not retained, and will disappear as soon as they no longer contain any reports.

The name of the report may contain spaces and basic punctuation. It should be a short phrase describing the concise contents of the report that users will easily understand when they view the report on their mobile devices.
