Data tables are used to view, report, bulk process through extensions or open AyaNova business objects for editing.

Data tables are used to view, report, or open AyaNova business objects.
|
||||
|
||||
Many columns will contain items that represent other objects in AyaNova and are displayed by a url that you can click on to open that record indicated.
|
||||
Additionally data table forms can perform bulk operations on multiple selected business objects through [Extensions](ay-extensions.md).
|

|
||||
Many columns will contain items that represent other objects in AyaNova and are links that you can click on to open the record indicated.
|
||||
|
||||
Date, time and currency columns are displayed according to the web browser's default however they can be overriden in the [User settings form](home-user-settings.md).

## Common menu options
|
||||
|
||||
Most data tables in AyaNova share the same common menu options. One ore more of these options might not be available for _all_ forms depending upon the Roles assigned to the current User or the type of AyaNova business object being listed.

#### Report
|
||||
|
||||
This menu option opens a [list of reports](ay-report.md) available to be rendered from this data list.
|
||||
|
||||
[Filtering](#filtering-columns) affects which records will be rendered in reports; what is available in the data table is what is sent to the report rendering engine. So, for example, if you filter for only work orders from the current week that is what will be reflected in the report.

|
||||
|
||||
Individual records can be selected for reporting by checking the checkboxes in the leftmost column when available in which case only the records selected will be sent to the report rendering engine.

In most cases reports will display the data in the same sorting order as being viewed in the data table however some reports have their own built in logic to re-sort or group the data for specific scenarios which will override the sort order presented in the data table.
