Select Folder Window
The Select Folder window is usually the first window displayed after starting VISTA. This window
is not displayed if VISTA is run for a specific folder or if folder profiles have been configured.
The Select Folder window allows you to select and open folders. A folder contains a collection of
reports. For example, a folder named PAYROLL might contain all Payroll reports. Each folder has
a description field to describe the reports it contains. To view a report file, you must first open the
folder that contains the report.
Your system administrator will define the reports that are to be placed in a report folder. When
reports are generated they are automatically placed in their assigned folder. The descriptions
associated with a folder will also be defined when a folder is created.
To view the reports in a folder, position the cursor on a folder name and press Enter or F4, Open
Folder. The Select Report window is displayed with a list of report names in the selected folder. In
the Select Report window, you can select a report file to view.
