Folks, 

We are finding staff wanting to use the Web export of data more. The one big hurdle is that that we frequently want to get to the selected project quickly- and are always forced to rerun a Filter for the desired project once e get to the 'Lab Reports' screen.

The Filter for Projects is clunky at the 'Lab Reports' window. The orange Filter on top cant be cleared quickly or a LIKE statement run to find what you want.. And as our database has many hundreds of projects - its very slow to search what you need below.

Two useful options would be:

a) The ability to go to a web based Report (QA and Chemsistry Lab reports like page) direct from the Desktop Application - filtering to the currently open SITES/ Projects in the desktop application.

b) the ability to select a Project/ Site from the web front end PROJECTS & SITES page - where the filters are well built -- then view the Lab report outputs for the site/Project that has already been selected  at the other page.

These are the things that would make it much easier for our users to find their data on the web FE.

Thanks Justin,

We are looking to encourage people to the we front end for that kind of reporting, so appreciate that feedback.  Its been added to our Feature Requests for the next version.

In the interim, for most users if they can only have View permissions to the projects they need then the Projects filter should be a lot smaller.  Also, although the "QA Reports" can only be accessed from the "Lab Reports" section, Chem Tables and Maps can be accessed from "Data Views" which has extensive and superior filtering options.
