Add to batch: The Add-to-Batch button allows you to run several (often related) reports in a group at once, [for example, to save time you may run the batch while away from your terminal].
To run a batched report:
Select the report you want to run, and fill in the relevant selection criteria, if any are required. If the report is available to be batched on, there is a button labelled Add to batch, which must be clicked to bring up a child window prompting you to enter a Report Group. There is no search facility here but if you type in an entry that does not already exist, it is created there and then, and if the entry does already exist, it is added to the report group. There is also a drop-down menu
that allows you to set the priority required to execute the report.
When a report has been added to a group, the running of the batch can take place. This actually takes place by selecting the Report Generator menu option, and then selecting the Batched Reports option. Consequently you can select the report group required (Batch Identifier) via the drop-down menu
