By following the steps described in the articles below, a user will now have the building blocks in place to compile a Mondial CRx report.:

Combining Row Headers, Footers, Column Layouts and Row Formats will create a report template that can be seeded with report run-time parameters.

Furthermore, the ability to ‘mix and match’ allows the user to create different styles of a report from the same core definitions.
