7.5.1 Linking widgets
It is good practice to make one Reporting widget the primary widget by linking your other widgets to it and setting up
through this one widget thus all adjustments made to this widget is automatically carried out in the connected widgets,
for example the resolution period set in the primary widget is automatically followed by all the widgets connected to it.
Click the Reporting widget's Settings icon followed by the Communications button.
The Reporting view changes to the Communication settings - Reporting view: shown below. In Node selection click

Click once to confirm the connection when the cursor changes.
