Reports that you have access to are located inside these folders

How to get to Reports you currently access via MyPortal Reports tab

1. Locate the Certified folder on the left navigation bar, and click on it
   

   
   
   

2. In the Certified folder, datablocks are organized in folders by Functional area, you will see folders of Functional Areas based upon your access/permissions, click on the appropriate folder
   
   
   

3. The datablocks will appear on the right side of the screen, locate the one that is likely to have the report(s) you are looking for, and click on it

   

   
   

4. The datablock will appear

   (Note: There can be one or more reports based on each datablock)

   Select the parameter values as required - your selections will apply to ALL the reports for this datablock

   In the datablock, to access the required report, click on the down arrow next to Reports menu option in the top navigation bar, and click on the report name
   

   

   
   

5. If needed you may change parameter values at the report level as well

   Once ready to run the report, click on the Run button in the top navigation bar
   

   

    

6. The report can be now be accessed as designed - e.g. if the report output is a CSV file, then follow the prompts to open with Excel, and access it from your computer's Downloads folder

    

7. You can then change the parameter values and run the same report again, or select a different report to run, or use the breadcrumb on top to navigate back to the folder and select another datablock, or another folder to access an entirely different report
