Hold Entry Details

Hold Entry is a storage location for system-run reports located in the Report Queue and accessed through the printing menu. There are two hold entry options:

Spooler authorizations control access to upload, download, and process reports. You must be assigned different authorizations to perform different tasks in Hold Entry. The PHANTOM.EDIT authorization key has four levels of authorization depending on whether you want users to be able to manage just their own jobs or other's jobs as well.

Note:Report Writer is separate from Hold Entries. Use Report Writer for creating custom reports.

You can organize reports in Hold Entry into folders and sub folders. By default, all reports are assigned to the Primary folder, but each user can create additional folders to store and organize reports.
