Printing Reports
Once you click on the Print button, your browser's print dialog will appear. All web browsers (such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari) and printers handle web page printing slightly differently. Please consult your browser's help for specifics regarding print layout options and functionality. For advanced printing functionality and layout design, we recommend proceeding to the next step and exporting your report to Excel for full control over the layout and formatting of your report.
Exporting to Excel
If you wish to save the report information or make changes to the report, such as adjusting columns and formatting for advanced printing functionality, you may easily do so once the report has been exported to a spreadsheet format. Here are a few helpful hints once you have exported your report.
- Depending on your software and security settings, you may need to "Enable Editing" before making changes.
- The report details and parameters summary will appear in the spreadsheet for information purposes. Some people find it helpful to delete these rows to make it easier to work with the rest of the spreadsheet.
- If you see columns with ##### in them, it simply means that your column needs to be widened. Once you have done that, the numbers will display correctly!

Please make sure you are running the SUMMARY PALMS REPORT. If you are running the "VP Report" that is limited to only six months...
I am trying to print a summary PALMS report for July 10th, 2014, but the start date will NOT let me go beyond June. Am I doing something wrong?
Matthew,
The report dates will default to the previous completed 6 months. There is a built in check that won't allow a "negative" date range, so in order to change the start date beyond June, first change the END date to July :- )
Hope this helps!
I am trying to find a total year to date for the TYFCB. It seems I can only run 6 months at a time. I have changed the dates to reflect a 12 mo nth eriod but the report sti will ony show 6 months. How can I find an accurate year to date (Jan 1- Dec 31 TYFCB
