What is the Red Dot
Resolution
When viewing WebReports and the listed reports show one or more with a Red Dot, this designates the report as a dashboard report
A dashboard report is a report that processes fixed or predefined filtering criteria to generate report output.
Unlike prompted reports, dashboard reports process the report output based on the predefined filtering criteria and generate the report output when you select the report. You do not need to enter filtering criteria or click the Run button to generate the report.
For additional information on Dashboard Reports also see the Online Help.
