Bulk Report Descriptions

Contents

Introduction

Bulk reports are custom comma-delimited reports that you can build using data found in Tamarac Trading. You can customize the columns within bulk reports, as well as share them with colleagues. Then, when you run a bulk report, you can see the data from Tamarac Trading using the parameters you created for that particular bulk report.

For instructions on creating and running bulk reports, see Create, Edit, and Delete Bulk Reports.

Section Types

The report type you choose will affect the columns available to add to your bulk report.

The columns available to add to your bulk report are broken into section types. For example, the Account - General section type contains columns related to general account settings, such as address, account type, description, tax status, and so on. Use these section types to identity columns you might want to add to your bulk reports.

You can also click on these section types to add all of the columns in that section to your bulk report. To do this, click on the section type and click .
