Printing a report or saving it as PDF

Every report has a Print / PDF button. The page is laid out for you: you do not need to change the paper, margins or orientation yourself.

Before you start

Run the report first, with the dates, filters and search you want. What is printed is what the report shows: the same rows, in the same order.

Click Print / PDF at the top right of the report.
On long lists you will see "Preparing the report for printing…" for a moment while every row is gathered. A list of about 13,000 customers takes about half a minute.
The print window opens. Choose your printer, or Save as PDF, and print.

Portrait or landscape is chosen automatically. Reports with 8 or more columns, or too wide to fit across a portrait page, print in landscape.
Margins are thin (6 mm), so more of the page is used.
The text size fits the page: larger on reports with few columns, smaller on very wide ones, so there is little empty space.
Long text such as descriptions wraps onto a second line. Amounts, dates and column headings always stay on one line.
Every page prints, with the column headings repeated at the top of each page.
Buttons and icon-only columns (like the magnifier) are left off the paper.

To print fewer pages, narrow the report first: a shorter date range, a search, or a filter on a column.
Save as PDF in the print window gives you a file to email or attach.
Excel or CSV is better than paper when you want to work with the figures.

The orientation option in the print window is greyed out → The report chooses portrait or landscape for itself. This is expected.
The print shows only part of a list → Make sure you clicked the report's own Print / PDF button, not the browser's menu or Ctrl+P. The button gathers every row first; the browser's own print only sees the rows on screen.
It takes a long time before the print window opens → Very long lists are gathered row by row. Wait for the notice at the top to go away, or narrow the report first.
