Using the [ ] button, the technical report IDs can be displayed in a separate column.
Fig. 159: Column 'ID' of Tax Reports
Since report names in the GTC are revised and standardised, you can view additional column Name [alt]. This column helps the user to find the report under its original name.
Generate report
Reports are generated with a click on the Excel symbol. After that the report can be saved locally or opened. The report runtime varies according to the configuration of individual parameters and depends on the hardware used by the GTC server.
