Creating a style sheet

Create a custom style sheet to define a specific layout or formatting standard for your reports.

Before you begin

  • Ensure you have basic knowledge of CSS syntax.
  • Identify the formatting requirements for the report, such as page size, font specifications, and table formatting.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to the Style sheets page.
  2. Click Create style sheet.
  3. In the Name field, enter a unique name for the style sheet.
    Note: Style sheet names must be unique. If you attempt to save a style sheet with a name that already exists, an error is displayed.
  4. Optionally, enter a description.
  5. In the CSS editor, define the style rules for the report layout, including:
    1. Page layout and margins
    2. Typography - fonts, sizes, and weights
    3. Table formatting - headers, borders, and cell padding
    4. Heading styles
  6. Click Save.
    Note: If there is an exclamation (!) mark next to the style sheet name, this means that you have not saved the style sheet.
    Note: You can have an unlimited number of saved style sheets. However, you can have no more than three style sheets in an unsaved (draft) state at one time. If three unsaved style sheets are open, you must save or discard one before creating another.

Results

The new style sheet is created, saved, and available for assignment to projects.
