If you require a new report, or wish to make changes to an existing report, then you need to submit a Report Request Form

Download the Report Request Form

• Enter your details (company name, your name, date, telephone number)
• Enter the Report Name – this is what you want the new report to be called, or the name of the existing report if you require an amendment
• Tick the New or Existing box – this tells us whether you require a new report, or a change to an existing report
• Indicate whether you wish for the report to be Exported to Excel – if you choose ‘No’, the report would be optimised for viewing on screen or paper, and might not export properly to Excel
• Provide us with a Business Case for the report – this informs us why you need the report, and can help us ensure we’re providing data from the correct sources
• Enter Scope/Module details – this tells us from which Protean modules the data will come from
• Provide a Design for the report – tell us which columns you wish to see in the report, and details of any calculations the report might need to make
• Indicate any Data restrictions for the report – tell us whether the report needs to be restricted to show records only in a certain status, or type etc.
• Provide details of any Groupings and Totals you need – this informs us that you wish to see subtotals for each customer, employee, date etc.
• Indicate whether a Date Filter is required – if you need to filter by date, then tell us which date you wish to filter by
• Tick the Yes or No box for Depot Filter – if you have multiple depots, do you need to report each depot separately?
• Provide details of Other Filters – you can set your own filters here, so you can filter based on status, type of record etc.
• Indicate whether there are Samples Attached – this is advised in most cases, so we can get an idea of how you envisage the report looking
