- For blank fields, enter the required value or select an option from the list provided.
Note: For some fields, if you do not select an option (leave the field blank), the standard report will also include feedback reports that do not have information in the relevant field. For example, in the No Action report, if you do not select a provider in the Provider field although there may be several options, the standard report will include feedback that do not indicate the providers involved. If you select one or more providers, the standard report will only include feedback associated with the selected providers. - Click OK.
