====== Meeting Booker Reports ======

Meeting Booker provides a simple interface to run individual reports - this can be accessed from the **Other Views -> Reports** menu. An example is shown below:

The interface allows reports to be tuned and refreshed, the underlying SQL to be viewed (maybe to copy for the start of a new report) and also for the data to be exported in a number of formats, for example CSV or PDF.

Creating and editing reports is controlled by user level permissions, but once a report has been created, it can be re-run at any time by any authorised MB user.

It is worth mentioning that the reporting interface is secured – data can be read but NOT updated, changed or deleted, via the reporting system.

===== SQL guidelines =====
