# How to Work with Reports
The following functions can be used to work with MED-V reports:

- [Editing report parameters](#bkmk-howtoeditreportparameters)
- [Exporting a report to Microsoft Excel](#bkmk-howtoexportareporttoexcel)
- [Closing a report](#bkmk-howtocoseareport)
Report results can be sorted by any column by clicking the appropriate column name.
