    View Reports in the FIMS Viewer

    The FIMS Viewer displays reports when you choose to send them to the screen. You can save, print, change the font, and search for data in the report. Many reports also allow you to rerun the report directly from the FIMS Viewer.

    Example: Report in FIMS Viewer
