Once there, navigate to the ‘Advanced’ section and click on the drop-down arrow next to ‘Custom Report’. Select ‘Report Builder’.
The ‘Custom Report Builder – Templates’ window appears. Here, you can either choose an existing template or create a new one.
After selecting your chosen report, you’re taken to your report. On the left, you’ll find a dockable window labelled ‘Objects’. From here, you can add a planogram template. Either drag and drop it or click on the report.
This opens the ‘Custom Report – Automation Template Properties’ window as seen below.
First, give your grid a name.
Next, select your data source. You can also include a template variable as well as choose your packing level.
