2. Select filter on the rows to display or data aggregation mode
3. Select the report type: please note that it won't be possible to change the report type once saved
4. Select column and criteria for the selected report type

Report Category

Forma natively provides three report "categories", each based on a different logic for data displaying, and providing different report types. 

Available categories are:

1. Users-Courses: will display different data type for a list of users. 
2. Courses-Users: will display different data type for a list of courses.
3. Aggregated: shows aggregated informations for selected users and courses 

User Selector

For each category it is possible to select the users to be included in the report.

In most cases the best option is including "all users" and simply filter by course:

You can create an unlimited number of schedules:
