Change a saved report

Change a saved report the way you build one: click a word in its steps, or + to add one (see Build a report). Your changes show only to you until you save them.

As soon as you change a step, a bar at the top of the screen says Unsaved changes to the report’s name:

Unsaved changes to Blocked items by floorUnsaved changes to Blocked items by floor

  • Save changes the report for everyone who runs it.
  • Save as new… keeps your changes as a new report, with a name you type. The report you started from stays as it was.
  • Discard throws your changes away.

Sorting the table by a column’s name doesn’t count as a change: it only sorts what you see.

If you go to another screen before saving, Pointmap asks first:

Save changes to Blocked items by floor?Save changes to Blocked items by floor?

  • Keep editing stays on the report.
  • Discard throws your changes away and goes.
  • Save saves them and goes.

Going from the report to its points on the plan doesn’t ask: your changes wait on the report until you come back.

On the Reports list, click ⋯ at the end of a report’s row:

A report’s menu: Duplicate, Rename and DeleteA report’s menu: Duplicate, Rename and Delete

  • Duplicate makes a copy named after the report with copy at the end, and opens it. Change the copy as you like.
  • Rename gives the report a new name.
  • Delete removes the report for everyone. Pointmap asks first.
  • Owners and admins can change, save, rename and delete reports.

  • Members can change any report to look at it differently. They can’t save over a report someone else made: the bar has Discard and Save as new… only, so they keep their version as a new report of their own.

  • Guests can open reports and read them. They can click a step to read it, but can’t change it, and they have no ⋯ menu and no column list.

A report shows each person only the points they can see. See Run a report.
