Using Advanced
Reporting Templates 6
If you want to use the same configuration repeatedly, you can save it as a
template. You can save up to 20 templates for each type of advanced
report.

Loading and Reloading
Advanced Reporting Data 6
When you first open an Advanced Report configuration page, the system
loads all the data from the library log file for that report to the Internet
browser in preparation for creating your reports. If there is a lot of
information in the log files, this may take several minutes.
The data that is loaded in the Internet browser remains unchanged until
you log out of your library session or reload the data. If new data is
added to the library log file during your session (for instance, a TapeAlert
occurs), it will not appear in the onscreen report until you either log out
of the library and log on again, or reload the data. To reload the data
without logging out, click the Reload button. This reloads the entire data
set, which may again take several minutes.
