One way to create a report is to apply an existing query
to an existing report format and then running the report.
Before you begin
To generate a report, you must have a report format for the record type that you want to report
against. Rational®

predefined reports and report formats.
Also, you cannot use backslashes (\) or forward slashes
(/) in a report name.
