# Set up the report headers and captions - overview

Last modified February 19, 2026

> To provide the description of the data included in the report, you should define the titles for the report and its sections, add the headers for the report columns or column groups, and set up the captions for the rows or chain of rows.


To perform these tasks, you can use the following steps:

+ Set up the report title.
+ Set up the titles for each section of the report.
+ Set up the headers for a range of columns or for individual columns in the report.
+ Set up the captions for a range of rows or for individual rows in the report.

All the parameters required to define the titles for the analytical report can be set using the Analytical report manager windows.

+ [Add a title for the report section](https://docs.vismasoftware.no/visma-net-erp/help/general-ledger/manage-analytical-reports/design-analytical-reports/design-the-report-layout/add-a-title-for-the-report-section/index.md)
