Report Setup: Report Server
In the Main Menu, click Setup, Reports.
Alternatively, in the Standard Reports window, click Setup. Select the Report Server tab.

- Production and Income
- Daily Adjustments
- Birthdays
- Capitation Utilization
- Finance Charge
- Insurance Plans
- Prescriptions
- Receivables Breakdown
- Referral Analysis
- Daily Writeoffs
- Graphic Reports
- User Queries
- Task Search
Setting up the Report Server
There are two connection options:
- Direct Connection
- Middle Tier
Note: Always keep the report server database up-to-date so reports are run on current data.
Check Use separate reporting server to enable the connection settings.
Enter the connection credentials for the desired connection method (see below).
Click OK to save.
To set up the report server:
