# Creating Reports

## Creating Reports

To create a report:

1. Select **Reports** in the main header bar.
2. Select the standard dataset you want to build the report from in the navigation pane.
3. Click **Create New Report**.
4. Add or remove columns you want to display by clicking **Edit Columns**. You'll see the number of displayed columns on the button.
5. Add table filters to your report by clicking **Edit Filters**.
6. Add the report name, description, and select who can view the report by clicking **Configure**.
  1. Report Visibility can either be public, private, or accessible by one or more user groups.
7. Click **Save**.

## Subscribing to Reports

Reports created from the **Event History, Test Execution History, and Job Execution Histor**y datasets can be configured to be sent to users' emails.

Switch over to the **Subscriptions** tab and add a new subscription. Unlike job results which can be sent to anyone's email address, the recipient must be a Validatar user.

## Exporting Reports

Datasets and Reports can also be viewed outside of Validatar by exporting to an Excel file. On the dataset or report, apply the appropriate columns and filters and then select **Export to File**.

Validatar automatically exports the first 10,000 records in the dataset or report. For files larger than this, the user has the option to export the entire file or just the first 10,000 records.
