Make report cover sheets consistent across PDF, XLS and CSV outputs
I created a simple report to list 911 calls made by employees in the last month. I can download .CSV and .XLS output from Live Reports, and schedule the report in Subscriptions and receive .XLS or .PDF format output by email. Both LiveReports and Subscriptions should provide the same output format options. Additonally, the output produced by all three are different. Those should also be consistent. The .CSV just includes the data, the .XLS includes the data in one tab and the selection criteria in another tab. That selection criteria tab lists all the locations and 16,000 users. The .PDF includes a one-line table on the first page that lists the selection criteria and does not include the full listing of sites and users. (I can provide sample output but not post it here because of the data in the output.) The output produced should be consistent whether in XLS or PDF format. For our organization, most users won't want the cover page. They certainly won't want the version that lists every site and user.
So:
1. Please make the file formats consistent across Live Reports and Subscriptions, ideally offering .csv, .xls and .pdf from both
2. Please make the cover page consistent across formats, ideally as done in the XLS format today
3. Please offer the option to suppress the cover page for a Subscription report
