A Relational Report allows you to create an Excel Spreadsheet (.xlsx) that shows how 2 different Entities in Consultation Manager are connected. Instead of generating separate reports for things like Stakeholders and Events, you can combine them into one report to see the relationships between the data. This makes it easier to review engagement history, understand context, and prepare reports that reflect how Entities are linked in the real world.
How to generate a Relational Report
- Select 'Reports' > 'Reports'.
- Select 'Create Report' > 'Relational Report'.
- You can edit the name of the Report by selecting the edit symbol, typing and then selecting the tick to save.
