On the Manage Categories and Reports page, you can create a category, modify category details, change a category name, and delete a category.

Categories

Kyvos Reporting supports a multi-level (hierarchical) category structure.  You can group desired reports and objects into one category for better management.

• Every category has a Category Menu Name that uniquely identifies the category at that level in the hierarchy.  The name will be displayed in all dialogs and pages where the category name is displayed. 

• The Category ID should be unique across all categories. By default, Kyvos Reporting auto-generates it. To specify the Category ID manually, clear the System Generated checkbox.

• A Public category is (and the objects in that category are) is available to all the users. 

• A Private category is available only to the owner.  So, objects stored in a private category will be available only to the owner.

• To create a Public category, you need to login into the application using log in using a Super Administrator ID, Administrator ID, or using the ID that has Category Setup rights.

• Select the Hidden checkbox if you do not want to display this category in any of the dialogs and pages (except the Manage Folders and Reports page).  This will stop users from directly accessing the objects and reports stored in it.  For example, reports are used as sub-reports and executed within a report.
