You can easily re-run reports and know that once you have set up the report the way you like it, it will be reproduced like that every time you run it.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a id=\"post-7206-o30391\"><\/a>\n  In Snap XMP, reports are built up using instructions. These instructions allow you to add text, graphics, and analyses to a report. When the report is run, the current response data is inserted into the analyses and text information.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n  You can insert references in your instructions. When the report is run these references are replaced with data from the survey or responses. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n  In Snap XMP you can insert table cell references. If you create a table, you can use references to the row labels, column labels and the table cells in the report text, notes on analyses or even in another table. This means that you can use any data that is in the table in your report, and it will automatically use the latest data. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>   In Snap XMP Desktop, you can create a ranked table and order the columns from highest to lowest. This means that you can automatically place the highest and lowest values in your report without needing to edit them.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n  This tutorial explains how to create a simple report showing satisfaction rankings. The report uses data from analyses in the report text and shows how to use ranked tables to headline important points. For example, you can automatically include the aspects your customers are least satisfied with.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>   This tutorial uses the Course Evaluation survey which is distributed as a sample survey with Snap XMP Desktop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How table cell references work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\n  Cell references are a means of inserting automatically updated data in a report (or in the notes for an analysis). A cell reference is the position of the data in the specified table.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n  The cell referred to can be:\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\n    A row label (describe by tablename <strong>R<\/strong>N <strong>label<\/strong> e.g., AN1 R1 label\n  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\n    A column label (describe by tablename <strong>C<\/strong>N<strong> label<\/strong> e.g., AN1 C1 label)\n  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\n    A data cell described by its row and column number (describe by tablename <strong>R<\/strong>N<strong>C<\/strong>N e.g., AN1 R1C1)\n  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\n    A statistic value described by its row and statistic number (where its statistic number is its position in the list of statistics, S1 being the top, given by tablename <strong>R<\/strong>N<strong>S<\/strong>N e.g., AN1 R1S1)\n  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>\n  where N is replaced by the row or column number.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n  Once you have inserted the cell reference into the report, any filters applied to the whole report are applied to the table containing the referenced cell.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n  You can use any analysis as the basis for the reference. For example, if you wish to insert a reference to data in a chart, view the chart as a table to find the cell reference then redisplay it as a chart.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n  You can find out what the code for a given cell is by putting the cursor on it or clicking it. The cell reference information will be displayed in the status bar.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"590\" height=\"302\" src=\"https:\/\/www.snapsurveys.com\/support-snapxmp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/graphical-user-interface-table-description-autom.png\" alt=\"Graphical user interface, table\n\nDescription automatically generated\" class=\"wp-image-7207\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.snapsurveys.com\/support-snapxmp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/graphical-user-interface-table-description-autom.png 590w, https:\/\/www.snapsurveys.com\/support-snapxmp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/graphical-user-interface-table-description-autom-300x154.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 590px) 100vw, 590px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\n  You can also find the cell reference details by double-clicking the cell and checking the information in the Override Analysis Value dialog.<a id=\"post-7206-o31664\"><\/a>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a id=\"post-7206-step1\"><\/a>Step 1: Deciding what goes into your report<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\n  When you create a Smart Report, it is important to plan your report.
