Breeders Assistant includes a powerful report writer for generating printouts tabulating details from records. Click on the icons at the right for samples.
BA includes many sample report layouts but you can easily add your own. Each of the different record types (animals, contacts, matings, etc.) has its own set of report layouts.
Reporting options include:
Your choice of fields (columns), in whatever order you want.
Select column widths.
Whether to use grid lines.
Whether to have column headings at the top of each page.
Whether to divide the report into groups. Records are grouped according to fields you choose. E.g. you could have a report of all accounting transactions grouped by expense category.
Complete control of printer setup, separately for each report layout. E.g. you might use landscape for one report, portrait for another, or a different paper size, etc.
When it comes to printing a report, you can choose the records that are to be included in several ways:
Include all records of a given type e.g. all accounting transactions.
Use BA's searching facilities so as to limit the report to specific records e.g. all matings involving a given sire.
Use BA's record tagging facility to tag the records to be included.
