Bar chart (letter A): Mouse over the bar chart to see the legend for each bar, including the label and
count for each section. Scroll down the bar chart to see additional results.
Summary table (letter B): This table summarizes the results.
a. The first 5 results are shown. Additional results can be seen by moving through the table pages
(letter C). Or, you can click on the numbers in the bottom right of the summary table (letter D)
to toggle between 5 results or a larger number or results per tabular page.

b. This table is sortable using the up and down arrows in each column name. The search boxes
below the column name can be used to search for a specific value.
8. Clicking on a bar in the chart or a row in the summary table will filter the results table based on the
selection. The number of records shown in the results table (letter J) will change to reflect the number
of filtered results.
a. To remove a filter that has been applied to the chart or summary table, click the Clear Selection
button. You may need to manually remove any additional filters that have been applied to the
results table at the bottom.
b. Note: Clicking on the Assessments pie chart or summary table does not filter the results table,
but the results table can be filtered by using the drop-down above in the IR Category field of the
results table.
9. Results table (letter E): The results table is broken into tabular pages.
a. Use the page controls (letter H) to navigate through the table, or switch between 5 records and
a larger number of records using the numbers in the lower right (letter I).
b. Note: Clicking on one of the links in the Assessment Unit ID column will take you to that
Assessment record. If you want to download your data, do so before you click on one of those
Assessment Unit IDs, because that will navigate you away from the report. Returning to the
report will regenerate the report.
10. Adding Columns (letter F): You may choose additional columns to add to the results table. Click the
Columns button.
a. The optional columns vary depending upon the Summary report. The options for each report
are shown in a separate section below.
b. Note: As you add columns, you may need to use the horizontal scroll bar to see additional
columns.
11. Downloading results (letter G): Once you have the data the way you want (e.g., have added the columns
that you want, and applied filters if you would like), using the Download button will export the results
table to .CSV format. If you want all the results from the table, remove the filters.

Additional Column Options
Each summary report has different options for columns that may be displayed or hidden. Screen shots of the
columns available in each report are provided below. Gray check marks are for columns that are locked and
cannot be turned off. Additional fields are turned on by default (black checks) but may be hidden (i.e.,
unchecked). The empty boxes are fields that may be turned on. Select your choices and click the Save button.
