I'm a new Jet Reports user with minimal training. I have several simple reports that use different tables that I want to combine into one summary report. I tried pasting a second report onto the same worksheet as an existing report, but this didn't work. Is the best practice to put each report on a different worksheet in the same workbook, then pull the required data onto another spreadsheet which then be the actual report?

Jet Reports Historic Posts Do you have an example you can share with us? It'll help us to better understand the reports you're looking at combining!

Jet Reports Historic Posts What I want to create is a report that I can run at the end of a month that would show bookings, backlog, sales and recievables broken down by Branch (my Global Dimension 1). I have booking and backlog reports that I have created. How would I combine these? The two reports are attached.

Jet Reports Historic Posts If each report can stand alone, you should have no trouble placing it in 1 file as long as you use separate worksheets.
I have a report that is sent out every day showing the previous day's activity. It has about 8 tabs in it. The first worksheet is the summary that just pulls cell references from each of the other worksheets.
Tab 2 - what shipped yesterday
Tab 3 - Order Backlog
Tab 4 - New orders from yesterday
Tab 5 - Payments received
Tab 6 - Income Statement summary (MTD, QTD, YTD)
Tab 7 - Rolling average of # of daily orders
Tab 8 - POs Received
Tab 9 - POs Sent out
The report takes a while to run - 15 minutes or so for our relatively small business. It provides good visibility to multiple aspects of the business.
