Amendments to reports are made through Advanced Report Creator, a password-protected program that requires the relevant training to access.
To determine whether a report uses the alternate layout, open the report and go to the Layout tab.
In bottom section to the right of the window are two tick boxes: Alt Layout and Print Alt Only.
If Alt Layout is ticked, the alternate layout is used.
If Print Alt Only is ticked, only the alternate layout is used, whereas if it is ticked then both the alternate and standard layouts are used (for example, the standard Current Statement report uses both).
Below the tick boxes and the Portrait/Landscape radio buttons are two buttons: the top one is to Show/Hide Alternate Layout and the bottom one is to show or hide the Palette.
To add a field to the alternate layout, it must first be in the standard layout. With the Layout tab.
The top-left box lists all the fields in the report, and any with a red font is in the standard layout.
If they need to be added to the layout, double-click on the field. It will appear in the layout below in the bottom row, to the right of the last field.
Once it is in the standard layout, open the Palette then click on the field. It will be added to the bottom of the list of fields in the palette.
Open the alternate layout and double-click on the field to add from within the palette. It will go onto the layout in the top-left corner. The field can then be dragged into the relevant place.
