How to add a column to a saved report

In any report you are using, you can add any field you need. The only condition is that the field is stored in the Copernico database.

For example, you can add the nationality field to trophy reports. Or add the Full name field to those reports where the first name and the last name are separate.

 

1. Add a column

  1. Go to Reports and find the report. If it belongs to another user, you cannot edit it: first create your own copy with Clone, in the … menu on its row.
  2. In the report's … menu, click Edit (pencil icon).
  3. Double-click a column of the table and choose, in the top area, whether to add the new column to the left or to the right of the selected one.
  4. Type the title of the new column in its header and, in the column body, select the participant data you want to show.
  5. Save the report with Save.

The change only affects this report: it does not modify the preset in Participants. The full procedure, with screenshots, is in Modify presets in reports, and the other editor options are in Creating and printing reports.

 

2. Video

In the following video we explain how to do it:

3. Video transcript

Let's see how to edit a document to add information without modifying the preset. In this case, we have a document where we can't see the last names. What I'll do is go to the document and edit it, selecting the preset. At the point where I want to add it, I insert the column before or after. After that, I can select in the column I created which field I want to show; in this case, the last name. I'll just have to save it, and now when I view the document the last names will be included. We can do this with any field in the table.

This can also be applied to trophy documents. For example, in this trophy document, where I show information and don't need the club in the race, I can choose not to show the club. If necessary, I could adjust the column sizes to fit the new size. Save, and now when I view it I have the trophies without the club.
