Generate a Report

Generate a regulatory Report through a 4-step wizard that guides you from Template selection to the final compiled output.

Use this page to generate a Report from an existing Template. Generation is the moment Reporter applies a Template to data and creates a file that can be monitored, viewed, and downloaded.

Objective

---

Create a generated Report for a specific operational need, period, entity, status, or submission.

For example, generate a monthly CSV for May transactions, an XML file for a regulatory submission, or a PDF summary filtered to one customer segment.

When to use

---

Use this task when:

• the Template is ready;
• the Data Source used by the Template is available. It may be an internal source already configured for the environment or an external source added from Data Sources;
• an operator needs to produce a Report file;
• the Report needs optional filters, such as date range, status, type, or entity.

Do not use this task to change the Template structure. Update the Template first, then generate a new Report.

Before you start

---

Confirm:

• the selected Template is the correct one for the obligation;
• the Template output format matches the file you need to deliver;
• the Data Source used by the Template is available and tested when the report depends on a connection that may have changed;
• you know whether the Report should include all data or a filtered subset;
• the filter values are precise enough for the reporting period.

Reports are generated asynchronously. A new Report starts in Processing and only becomes available for download when it reaches Finished.

Step by step

---

1. Open the Reports page

   Go to Reports and click New Report.

2. Select the Template

   In the Template step, choose the Template that defines the output structure and format. Click Next.

3. Add filters when needed

   In the Filters step, add one or more filters to narrow the data. This step is optional. If the Report should include all available data, click Next.

4. Review the setup

   In the Review step, check the selected Template and applied filters.

5. Generate the Report

   Click Generate Report. The wizard shows generation progress and closes after the request is submitted.

6. Monitor the status

   The Report appears in the list with Processing status. Wait until it reaches Finished before downloading.

---

A new Report appears on the Reports page. When it reaches Finished, operators can preview or download the generated file.

Common errors and care points

---

Generating with the wrong Template

The Template controls layout and output format. If the wrong Template is selected, generate a new Report with the correct Template.

Using a Data Source that was not tested

Failed or outdated connections can cause generation errors. Test the Data Source before generating operational Reports when connection health is uncertain, especially for external databases or recently changed credentials.

Using broad filters by mistake

Empty filters can include all available data. Confirm whether the Report should cover all records or only a specific period, status, or entity.

Expecting immediate download

Download is only available after the Report reaches Finished.

Next steps

---

• Use Download a Report when the status is Finished.
• Use Correct a Report if the generated file has wrong data, layout, or format.
• Use Testing a Data Source if generation fails because of connection or schema issues.
