Overview
Report rules let you apply custom and dynamic styling to your reports based on form input. Using the Report Builder, you can have the appearance of fields and containers change to highlight or flag certain data that was reported.
For example, if you want to highlight failed items on an inspection report, you can apply a report rule that changes the text color of each failed item to red. This will ensure that no critical information goes unnoticed.
Report rules are an intuitive way to enhance the visual appeal, readability, and effectiveness of your reports.
