Stopping the Data Retrieval Process
The Quick Report retrieves the data from the ZENworks Inventory database. You can stop the retrieval process by clicking Stop in the status bar of the Query Results dialog box.
The status bar displays the count of machines whose data has been retrieved. If you stop the process while the data for a single machine has not yet been completely retrieved, the Query Results dialog box displays the data retrieved until that time, but the status bar does not contain any message. And, if you stop the process while the data is being retrieved for multiple machines, the status bar displays the count of machines for which the data has been completely retrieved.
