Create a custom report

The Custom Report Writer software lets you create your own custom reports using any of the fields that are available in your MLS.

To create a custom report

  1. From the Admin menu, select Custom Report Writer. The Custom Report Writer software opens in a new window.
  2. Click New in the Report Manager task pane on the right side of the window.
  3. In the toolbar, click in the Report Name field, and type the name you want to use for your report (for example, My Client Summary Report).

  1. Use the Property Type field to make sure the correct property type is selected (this will determine which fields are available).

  1. Select the appropriate Viewable Level. The software defaults to Personal, which means that you are the only person who will be able to run this report.

  1. Select a Page Style.

  1. Add the fields, images or other items (such as text and borders) you want on your report to the layout area. Use your mouse to move items within a section of the layout area. To move an item to another section of the report, such as the Header Section, right-click the item with your mouse, and select the desired section.
  2. Click Save in the toolbar to save your report. Once it has been saved, your custom report will be available for selection anytime you run a report in the MLS.
