Output Format Types

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

When you run reports in EnergySteward.com, you have the option of having the report create several output format types. These output format types are what displays in the pull down box every time a report gets submitted.   In addition, when publishing a new report to the system, a default output format format type is specified in order to provide for the 'normal' output that a report will be generating.  All reports can be submitted to any of the following output types (if so desired by the users that run the reports). Important note: These values should normally never be modified as they are used by the front end (online screens) and background report program services.

 

The screen shot below shows the initial screen which lists out your available report output format codes:
