Report's shortcut

[MMartinezV]

Hi,

Playing with the reports and thinking in how to enhance a little more the usability, I think that could be easier to get a quick report from the Archive toolbar.

Following with the issue #395. I think that once you have selected a device, period, from, to... you have almost everything to do a report. If you load this information when calling the "Reports Form" then you will just need to choose the type of report you want, write a name and click generate.

To give more sense to the relation between the fields in the "Archive toolbar" and the Reports, maybe placing a "QuickReport" button (or similar) in the bar will help.

Probably these little improvements makes things easier as more devices you have to manage with the UI.

I hope you'll like the idea,

Kind regards,

Manuel Martínez

I beleive this feature does not work as it is suposed to.the selected period for the quick report in the archive menu for a report goes to a different period rather than the one selected in the archive. Maybe I did not understand this feature.Can someone bouble check it ?

@hardjumper this sounds like a bug. I have tested it myself and looks like I am able to reproduce it only when "Custom" report period is selected. Please submit a separate issue to this issue tracker with screenshots of your archive toolbar and report opened from the archive "Reports" drop-down.
