Generate, Print, and Save a Context Search Report

The Context Search Report provides a summary of search results from a current search conducted using the search bar, Advanced Search, or a saved search, for online evaluation and/or printing.

Search results are highlighted in the fields selected to display in the report, and a summary of the search is presented at the end of the report. Other options exist, such as which tags to include, footer content, and how large amounts of text are presented.

NOTE: The report will display results based on the user permissions of the person running the report (that is, reporting on those tags and records they have permissions to see).
