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

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.
