Tailor Report

When you perform a FLIS search and select a NIIN, the Detail Summary screen contains a Tailor button in the upper right corner of the screen. The Tailor button creates a report from an “abridged” batch. The report is available only as long as you are logged into Haystack Gold. Once you log off, the report is only accessible if you have saved it to your desktop.

  1. Perform a FLIS Search and on the Details/Summary page, click the Tailor button.
  2. On the Tailored Report Settings screen, enter a Title for your report (optional), a Description (optional), an Output Name (optional – if you do not enter a name, the system will apply a generic name), select an Output Format type, and select None as an Archive Type. (None produces a .xls file and PKZIP Compression produces a .zip file. If you know your report will have more than 65,000 lines of data, select PKZIP Compression.)
  3. Click Get Report and when the report is finished, click the file link. You will receive a series of status updates while Haystack prepares your report and will be notified on screen when the report is ready for download.

    Important Note:
    If you click on the link and view a .xls file ins MS Excel, user your Browser’s Back button to return to the Tailor Report Delivery dialog box with the link to your report; otherwise, you will close the entire Haystack Gold application. To return from the Tailor Report Delivery dialog box to your results list, click the Back to Brief button in the top navigation bar.
