Manipulating reports using report tiles
Using report tiles
The main screen of the Report page in Pega Robot Manager™ displays recently opened reports in the form of tiles. Much like the dashboard on the main screen of Robot Manager, these tiles allow administrators to take quick actions on reports without needing to open them. Depending on your user privileges, you can perform these operations on reports. If you have either Report Admin or Report Writer privileges, you can open, edit, move, copy, remove, delete, and schedule reports from the Reports page. For more information on the different actions administrators can make with these privileges please see User roles.
