Test Mode VS Normal Mode

When Run in Test Mode, no values will be changed when the Report runs. When Run normally, changes are added to a cache, so that changes to the Report do not need to be performed multiple times.  Test Mode is an excellent way to check to see if any changes occurred and to verify if those changes are all desired. Test Mode is selected by default for the E911 Report. This prevents any possible misunderstandings from accidentally generating the actual E911 file.Generate Export FileImage Modified
