Generic Report Settings

    I am trying to run some reports, but I increased the max login length, and a couple business names are long and overflow to the next column, making the report columns offset from the headers.

    In the genaric reports, how many characters does each column support before it excedes the preset limit, and can this limit be changed?

    As an alternative, can the columns trunicate the information so that the report is uniform?

    Thank you,
    Zack

    Unfortunately it's not possible with the generic reports because of the way it finds/replaces variables. Your best bet is to export the generic report to a CSV file and print it from Excel.

    It's not a specific number of characters because it does not use a fixed-width font. The skinnier the characters, the more that will fit.

    On the screen where you choose the report to run (from the Scripts menu), you have an option to export the report to CSV (it should be a Yes/No option).
