Wednesday November 13, 2024 9:15am - 10:15am CST
South Pavilion 4/5
If the canned reports within Skyward do not provide you with the exact information you are looking for, you always have the capability of creating custom data mining reports. In this session, we will create a datamining report and show off the unique features of datamining, such as: creating total lines within reports, sort and filter options, cloning reports, and creating a PDF report vs. an excel report. This session is intended for current Qmlativ users.
