Report Template Size Limits

Note: This is a change to the report engine as of the 2020.19 updates to Daylite.

To ensure optimal performance, report templates are limited to a maximum of 5 MB each, with each image within a template limited to 512 KB.

Creating New Report Templates

When creating a new report template, the overall size will be limited to 5 MB. If you add images to your template, the images will be limited to a maximum of 512 KB each.
