Downloading and saving a report to your computer

After you have run the required report, click the CSV icon, as shown below.

You will now be asked where to save your document. The locations on the left side

locations that have been permitted by your IT Administrator. Navigate to the area

where you wish to save the document and click Save. In the example below, the N

drive has been selected as the save location, as that is the office shared location.
