Each report type in the Trends & reports module comes with a default report view. You can customize its settings, or save your own private report views to quickly return to specific configurations.

For example, if you regularly check yesterday's production for specific machines, you can select the machines, set the filter to ‘Previous day', and save it as a custom report view. When you open the view again, Connect applies your saved filters and displays the latest data. You can also favorite your most-used report views to access them directly from the top of the menu.
