FAQ #: 115
How do I get reports into the Archived Reports?


Several reports, such as any journals that update general ledger, stock receipts, phsyical inventory, etc are already configured for Automatic Archiving. This means, if enabled, Answers automatically makes a copy of these reports each time they are printed and updated in the archives. You can manage which reports are automatically archived through the Archived Reports Configuration program (System Management > Answers Printer Menu > Archived Reports).

Additionally, you may wish to archive, or store, other reports. This is a feature of archiving that needs to be enabled in the Archived Reports Configuration. When manual archiving is turned on, you can print any report in Answers and use the View on Screen option. On the toolbar in the Report Viewer is a folder icon to manually archive the report. It will confirm the name it is to be stored with, and then store the report in the archives for you.
