There are two main panels in a *Report Browser* window:

* Model Layout panel
* Data Export Settings panel

## **Model Layout**

The *Model Layout* panel displays the layout of your report model or extraction template. It contains data regions and fields built according to a custom extraction logic.

You can add and delete regions and fields, edit their properties, and export data directly to an excel sheet, a CSV file, or a database table using the options available in this window.

In the figure below, you can see an extraction model that has a hierarchical structure. This model contains a single instance region (*Account\_Info*) as well as collection regions (*Orders\_Info* and *Order\_Details*).

There are icons placed at the top of the *Model Layout* panel. These icons enable you to perform various tasks. A brief description for each of these icons is given in the table below:

## **Data Export Settings**

Options provided in the *Data Export Settings* panel enable users to export data to an excel sheet, a CSV file, or a database table. The exported data can then be used in various flow documents (a dataflow, a workflow, or a subflow).
