Custom Reports
New custom report templates can be created using the Report Designer. It can also be copied from a default report template which contains the relevant data and format. The new report template can then be customized by removing data that is not required, choosing a different font or color or adding an image.
A custom door access report can be created to list people who have entered / exited a specific door.
