Defining Report Field Formats

Field formats determine the appearance of data output to your report fields.

Your reports can use the default JADE Report Writer system format for report fields, you can change the default system formats to meet your requirements, or each user can change the report formats for individual reports and for each report field.

You can use the default system formats that are set with your installed version of the JADE Report Writer. These formats apply to all reports.

You can modify the system default values by using the JADE Report Writer Configuration application. These default values apply to all subsequent reports. You can do this to apply standard formats that apply throughout your organization.

In the JADE Report Writer Designer application, you can modify the default field formats for each individual report.

Finally, you can modify the default display format for each individual field in a report, by selecting that field and then applying your changes.
