List View |
If List View is selected the reports will be shown in a basic list. These will be split up by group (if applicable). The groups can be expanded / collapsed. |

(or have been given edit permissions).

You will also be able to set the report to be emailed periodically. |

When you first create a report you will be the only person who can see it. This icon will take you to the Share tab to change the permissions. |
Remove |
This icon will remove the Report from the view. The delete icon will appear when in List view: In Grid view, use the X on the top right corner of the report box instead: Note: The Report will still be available (or can be deleted permanently) from the "Add Existing" option. |
