Creating the Initial Report Layout
The first task in creating the invoice is to create the initial report layout using the Instant Layout option. Although you will not use all the information Report Builder automatically generates, you will use some of the band lines and fields. You will also display fields from the master table.
Follow these steps to create the report definition:
- Choose the New Report button. The Database Tables dialog box appears.
- Select Order as the master table for the report, then choose OK. Report Builder prompts you to use the Instant Layout option.
- Choose Yes. The Instant Layout Fields dialog box appears.
- Select the Order–num field, choose Add, then choose OK. Report Builder creates the instant layout.
