Use this view to create reports for your project. Reports are overviews of topics that match certain criteria or contain certain sections. That way you can generate topics that include parts from several topics in your documentation such as for example a glossary. Or you can generate list of topics that match criteria such as undocumented, version specific or unfinished. Reports can be included in any topic in your documentation.
To create reports
