Introduction

Not all information is fit for all users, so this chapter discusses how record selection can used to limit the data in a report. Hand-in-hand with limiting the data (reducing the recordset also improves speed and performance) is a review of tuning the report. Even when a report is published to BusinessObjects Enterprise (introduced in many chapters later) and much time is invested in correctly architecting and tuning the servers, the number one performance improvement is often in correct report authoring.
