The Report Options view, located below the Reports List view, lists
all report options for the selected (active) report from the Reports
List. The view is opened and updated when a report is selected from
the Reports List and includes a row-specific context menu. The view
is closed if no reports are selected and none are displayed in the
Report View. The tab title for this view displays the ID of the selected
report.

Each report option can be edited and changed via the Context Menu
or by double-clicking on the desired row. An edit dialog window is
displayed in which the value can be modified.
The individual report can then be downloaded with the new report
options applied and the Report View refreshed with the updated report.
Refer to Report views for details.
Any report can be edited and downloaded with the exception of the
Variance (“V”) and CICS MASS (“X”) reports.
The modified report options are only applied for the selected observation
request report. Alternatively, if the report option value should be
a permanent change that would be applied to all observation requests,
the report option preference located in the User Preferences should
be modified instead. Refer to Report download options preferences for
details.
Note: In reports with multiple levels of detail,
for example the E06 CICS Service Time by Task Id report, expanding
the report requires the following steps:
- In the Observation Reports List view, select the report to be
expanded.
- In the Options panel for that report, located in the lower left
pane in the GUI, double click the Levels option.
- A dialog box is displayed, as shown below. Enter a new value for
Levels.
- Right click E06 CICS Service Time by Task Id in the Observation
Reports List view and and select the download option. The expansion
of the report now occurs.
