# Report generation

Easily create PDF reports with filters

**Creation Steps:**

1.  Open the **Reports** tab, then choose **New Report**.
    
2.  **Report Settings:**
    
    -   **PDF by company**: Creates a PDF document for each company with the assigned reserves.
        
    -   **Criteria on the properties of the elements**: Elements must meet all conditions to appear in the report.
        
    -   **Periodic sending**: Regularly receive the report as configured. Scheduled reports will appear in the report tab and can be deleted but not edited.
        
    -   **Adding recipients**: Include other people to receive the report.
        

**Additional Notes:**

-   Recipients receive an exact copy of the report based on your visibility rights. Use filters to restrict access if necessary.
    
-   You will receive an email link to download the files. The email with the report can be forwarded.
    
-   For report size optimization reasons, it is not possible to display comments on items with or without forms.
    
-   Reports are grouped according to the order of the project plans, and items are sorted by the date of the last update.
