About Implementation Settings

Learn more about key Reporting Tool settings Administrators and Configurators may want to modify.

Enable Standard Reports

The Deltek Reporting Tool settings (Administration >> Settings) are typically configured for you during Implementation, and the Reporting Tool is ready to use. Most settings should not be modified. There are a few settings that Administrators and Configurators may want to modify. Learn more about these settings.

Field Description
Enable Standard Reports By Group Access to Deltek Standard Reports is granted at the user group level, and not as a Reporting Tool setting. An Administrator must select Enable Standard Reports on the Group Management screen Privileges tab for each user group that needs access to Standard Reports (Administration > Groups > Edit > Privileges Tab > Reports > Enable Standard Reports). These reports are useful for creating reports with templates in the Report Working Area.

Data

Field Description
All Data Settings These settings are configured during implementation and do not typically need to be modified.

Debug

Field Description
Debug Mode Debug Mode should not be enabled without first contacting Deltek support.

Export

Field Description
Export Conditions This setting is disabled by default. Enable this to include a block in the report header that shows all filter, grouping, and column options saved with the report.
PDF Font Size The default font size has been selected as the ideal size for most report users exporting reports to PDF. if necessary, you can modify the default font size here.

Report Creation

Field Description
Show Key Fields In Data Source Menus This setting is disabled by default. Only power users with strong MySQL skills who use the legacy Report Wizard may want this setting enabled for their user group.
Preview Timeout Seconds This setting controls query preview timeout (in seconds). Typically a low value is best for this field. It defaults to 60 seconds.
Note: Best practice is to avoid increasing this setting to a higher value after experiencing a time-out while creating a report. First troubleshoot to ensure the proper functioning of the report. In most cases a time-out is caused by errors, for example, incorrect table joins. A higher value in this field simply causes longer wait time between actions.
Report Wizard Though the legacy Report Wizard is still available, we recommend creating, editing, and viewing reports in the Report Working Area. You may want to use this setting to disable the legacy Report Wizard.

Site Appearance

Field Description
All Date/Time Settings This section contains a number of date/time formatting settings you may want to modify from the default to meet your needs.

System

Field Description
Default Time Zone This setting defines the time zone for all users. It must be set by a Configurator during implementation. If no value is set, it defaults to U.S. Central Time (or U.S. Eastern Time for companies based in Canada).
