Custom Text Fields

In the Template Designer pane, a user can define fields that can have values substituted into a query. When the report is generated, the Scope Selector window presents the fields that can be selected, thus providing dynamic input for the report.

This option enables you to create up to three free-form text fields, where you can specify a field that you want to use in your query, plus set a default value. For example, you might enter Host Name, so that when you form the query, you can specify a host name to be inserted into the query.
