# Static mode for reports: Remove or keep formulas in run report

Last modified July 21, 2026

> Use static mode to remove formulas and increase report execution speed.


Some of our users have very large reports, containing numerous cells with formulas, many that are referring to other cells and functions. This might cause performance issues when running reports in the portal. Therefore, we have made it possible to run reports in "static mode". This means that all formulas are removed in the workbook and the values are replaced with actual cell values.

Users can control the formula settings for a report template from the **Report Properties** in **Report Designer**. On the **Reporting** tab, there is now a **Keep formulas in run report** checkbox. If this checkbox is deselected, the formulas are removed from the report.

- The default setting for existing reports is selected (True).
- The default setting for new reports is deselected (False).

> [!NOTE]
> This option will not have any impact on budgets.

## Keep formulas in run reports

1. In Report **Designer**, on the **OneStop Reporting** tab, click **Report Properties**.
2. Click the **Reporting** tab.
3. Select the **Keep formulas in run report** checkbox.
4. Click **OK**.

All formulas in the generated report are kept during processing.

## Remove formulas in run reports

1. In Report **Designer**, on the **OneStop Reporting** tab, click **Report Properties**.
2. Click the **Reporting** tab.
3. Clear the **Keep formulas in run report** checkbox.
4. Click **OK**.

All formulas in the generated report are now removed during processing, and the values are replaced with actual cell values. When formulas are removed from a report, it is no longer possible to make calculations in run reports in **Reporting**.

> [!NOTE]
> When formulas are removed from the report template, the drilldown will function as normal.
