To provide customers with extra reporting flexibility, our support team can set up export tables to extract and manipulate specific data for reporting. If the Cabinet checkbox is enabled, then an extra Supplier page is added in the Local Properties of the cabinet. Whether these properties are greyed out or not is dependent on the background configuration. See also My Setup > Report Properties for more details.
