# Run user reports in the desktop client

Run user reports to obtain listings for OpenText Dimensions CM objects or obtain statistical information from your base database.

For details on the reports you can request, or how to set up your own reports, see Reports and published views.

Note: This option is for running reports using the Dimensions `RUR` function. There is a newer more powerful reporting capability provided with the Report Builder. See Run Report Builder.

To run a user-defined report:

1. In the desktop client, select Report > User Reports. The Run User Report dialog box opens.

2. On the General tab, specify the following details:

   Field | Description
   --- | ---
   Scope | Select the area of OpenText Dimensions CM to which the report applies, or select All Reports.
   Report | Select the name of the report you want to run. The available reports are those that have been set up in the User Reports Administration section of the Administration Console.
   Product | Select the product in the base database against which you want to run the report.
   Output Filename | Enter the path of the file to contain the report, or click the browse button to select the file.

3. Select the Parameters tab and enter the required values for any parameters that are present.

4. Click OK.
