Each report has its own parameters, most of which are common to all reports and these are normally set using the Report Selection Criteria window. However, you can override these parameters by modifying the settings in the main configuration file.
If a user sets a specific parameter in the

window, it will be overwritten by that set in the main configuration file. This allows you to amend certain settings, for example the percentage mark-up in a billing report.As an example, we can set the percentage mark-up in every Billing Report to 50% and a surcharge of £1.00. To apply these settings, you need to edit the
file, located by default in . Each report has its own ID number, e.g. the Billing Report has an ID of 2, which corresponds to the main configuration file that you need to alter.Open the the
file using Notepad and in the | Keywordmacro |

section, add or amend the following line:| Code Block |

Report2Extra = &markup=50&surcharge=1.00 |
In the example above, when a Billing Report is run, these extra settings are forced upon the reporting engine and override any values that the user has selected.
