Använd en befintlig sparad rapport som mall 

Ett vanligt scenario när man jobbar med sparade rapporter är att samma typ av rapport ska skickas till olika personer med samma inställningar men med olika innehåll. Touchpoint Statistics låter användare enkelt använda en befintlig sparad rapport som utgångspunkt för nya. Det enda man behöver göra är att öppna en sparad rapport och göra önskade ändringar, t.ex. byta namn, mottagare och mätobjekt. Men innan man sparar ändringarna klickar man i checkboxen Spara som en ny sparad rapport. Detta skapar en ny sparad rapport baserad på utgångsrapporten fast med gjorda ändringar. Originalrapporten ändras inte i detta läge.
