Enabling User-Defined Report Layouts: Dynamic Column Selection in Blitz Report for EBS

Avatar photoCustomer November 28, 2025 at 3:36 pm

Our business users, especially managers using large supply chain extracts, demand the flexibility to customize their report output by choosing which columns to display or hide at the point of execution . Currently, using BI Publisher necessitates altering the underlying XML template for every minor change, which is rigid, time-consuming, and locks us into dependence on developer resources. Is there a business-friendly, self-service feature available in EBS reporting tools that allows end-users to manage these report layout preferences dynamically?

      The challenge of managing report layouts without burdening IT is solved by the self-service capabilities within Blitz Report . Business users can leverage the ‘Column Template’ function, or ‘folder style capability,’ to define and save their personalized report layouts .

      This feature allows users to easily add, remove, or reposition columns using a simple interface within the runtime options, achieving the desired ‘dynamic column’ functionality without involving IT resources or complex XML modifications .

      That sounds intuitive. If a super-user creates a template, can they share it, or is the layout restricted strictly to the creator?

      Templates can be created at the user level for personal views, but the underlying Blitz Report definition itself can be assigned and shared across multiple users, responsibilities, or even applications, ensuring consistent reporting access across the organization .

      This empowers functional consultants and business leads to swiftly generate tailored, perfectly formatted EBS reporting outputs from modules like ASCP or Inventory without delay .
