# Run, Download & Copy Workbench Reports

To see the available actions on a _Workbench Report_, navigate to **Workbench > Ad Hoc Reports > [Report]**. 

## Run Workbench Reports

You can run a report using several actions:
* **Run**: While in view mode, you can select **Run**, which runs the report synchronously with other Vault activities.
* **Run in Background**: This action also appears in view mode. To trigger this action, select the drop-down next to _Run_. Once you trigger this action, the report runs asynchronously. For more information about running the report in the background, see <a href="/en/gr/3606/#run-reports-in-background">Creating Reports</a>; the Vault limitations do not apply to Safety Workbench.
* **Run + Save**: In edit mode, you have the option to **Run + Save**. This action saves your report changes and automatically runs the report synchronously. 

### Cancel Running Workbench Reports {#cancel-running-reports}

If <a href="/en/gr/962214/">configured</a> by your Admin, you can cancel running _Workbench Reports_ in the following ways: 
* Cancel a single report run: From the **All Actions** menu of a _Workbench Report_, select **Cancel Report**.
* Cancel multiple report runs at once: On the _Ad Hoc Reports_ <a href="/en/gr/44069/#list-page">object record list page</a>, follow the steps in <a href="/en/gr/33725/#select">Using Bulk Object Record Actions</a> to run the **Cancel Reports** bulk action on the selected reports, ensuring you select **Record Actions** as the action step. 

Vault sends you a notification when the action fails or succeeds. When running the **Cancel Reports** action, Vault also provides a CSV file listing the reports that were successfully cancelled.

### Post-Run Vault Notification

After the report finishes running, you will receive a Vault notification with a link to the report. Vault also updates the <a href="/en/gr/752963/#last-run-report">_Last Run Report_</a> section. 

If the report does not run successfully, the Vault notification informs you of any errors and the generation time. If a new report fails to generate, the original report is still available for you to access and download in the _Last Run Report_ section.

## Download Workbench Reports

After a report successfully completes, you can download a report in the supported formats from the <a href="/en/gr/752963/#last-run-report">_Last Run Report_</a> section _Download As_ field. 

The newly generated report replaces the previously generated report. Generated reports can be downloaded for up to a year by any user with access to the report. 

The downloaded report is presented according to the <a href="/en/gr/752971/">report's _Layout_ section</a> or a <a href="/en/gr/752973/">custom Excel template</a>. The report data is collected using <a href="/en/gr/752968/">_Workbench Report_ filters</a>, including any <a href="/en/gr/752968/#inherited-criteria-and-filters">inherited filters</a>, as configured by your Admin. 

If downloading the report in Excel format, the file displays any <a href="/en/gr/752971/#add-full-width-fields">full-width columns (fields)</a> in subsequent rows below the regular columns (fields). 

If downloading the report in CSV format, any full-width columns (fields) are displayed as columns after all other regular columns (fields). 

## Copy Workbench Reports

You can copy an existing report: 
1. From the _Workbench Report's_ **Actions** menu, select **Copy Record**.
2. On the _Create Workbench Report_ page, complete the following: 
* (Optional) Enter a new _Name_ for the report. 
* (Optional) Select a _Workbench View_ from the list.
* Update any other relevant fields. 
3. Select **Save**. 

**Result**

Vault creates the new _Workbench Report_ and redirects you to the _Workbench Reports_ page.
