Purpose

The Delivery module is the repository of created reports in MetaField. It stores both MetaField-generated reports and other project-related reports that are optionally uploaded into Delivery. There are a variety of actions that can be performed on reports in the Delivery module.


Info

It is important to understand that the Delivery module stores reports that have been generated in other areas of MetaField or in non-MetaField applications. They are static (point-in-time) reports. Changing the underlying DATA on a test or sample will not impact reports in Delivery at all. A new report will need to be created from the source module / application and finalized or uploaded into the Delivery module.

Filter Controls

Tip

The Highlight Public Reports control shades all report records (rows) blue if the report has been made public in AgilePort.

Delivery Notes

If one or more of the projects you opened in Delivery has Delivery Notes entered in Project Specifications, these notes will display just below the filter panel. You can open and expand this section to view these notes.
