Section 2, Task 3: Customize Report Definitions Action 3: Save the customized report definition in interactive form

From the report definition window, select File and Save Definition...

IT Service Vision displays the Save PROGRAM window.

If the original definition was supplied, the Name and Description are copied from the supplied report definition. To identify the custom report definition uniquely, change at least one character in the the name. For naming conventions, see Shared Appendix 7: Supplied Reports Naming Convention, which includes information about naming conventions for user-created report definitions. (If you come back later to make other customizations of this report definition and want to avoid name conflicts, you can see a list of names of the other custom report definitions by selecting VIEW PROGRAM.) Then select OK and OK.

If the original definition was not supplied, type in the Name and Description; for example, type a name of Faxexamp and a description of Fax example.

IT Service Vision saves the report definition in the ADMIN library and returns you to the main report definition window.

To return to the Reports menu, select File ->Quit -> File -> End.

Note: Later, when you want to use the custom report definition from the server's interactive interface, select Custom Rpts instead of Supplied Rpts on the Reports menu.
