Vault auto-generates report export cover pages and attaches them to PDF exports of reports. By editing the default Report Export Cover Page template, you can change the information that appears on these pages.

All PDF exports from reports use the same template. While you can change the information that appears, you cannot create custom cover page templates.

Accessing Cover Page Template Management

From Business Admin > Templates > Signature & Cover Pages, you can manage the Report Export Cover Page, audit export cover page and signature page templates.

How to Edit the Template

To edit the cover page template:

  1. From the Signature & Cover Page Templates page, click the Report Export Cover Page template.
  2. Click Edit.
  3. Make any necessary changes.
  4. Click Save.
  5. The new template takes effect immediately for all new PDF exports of reports.

Tokens

You can use tokens to make your cover page specific to each report. Except for Name, all fields for the Report Export Cover Page template are editable.

When editing the Report Export Cover Page, you can use the following tokens:

Label Suggested Token Description
Name Report Export Cover Page Non-editable, name of the cover page template
Title ${reportName) Name of the report
Subtitle ${exportDateTime} DateTime of the export, in the user's time zone
Body Block 1 ${description} Description of the report
Body Block 2 ${exportedByUsername} Username of the user exporting the report
Body Block 3 ${reportType} Report Type of the report
Body Block 4 ${pages__v} Number of pages for the exported report

Report Filters

You can add the Filters ({$filters}) token to any section of the cover page template to display the list of report filters.

Dates & Times

Vault displays dates and times, including in exported cover pages, in the current user’s selected time zone.

How to Inactivate the Template

If you do not wish to show cover pages with PDF exports, you can make the Report Export Cover Page template inactive. To do this, remove all tokens from all fields in the template and save. Rather than generating a blank page, Vault generates a PDF without a cover page.

You cannot delete the Report Export Cover Page template.
