Once a report has a large number of column and filter options it can be useful to define a set of default options. These columns and filters will be automatically added to any new report that is based on this source. This gives the user a headstart by generating a 'typical' report which they can further customise. To add default column options, add a new property to the class called defaultcolumns:
$this->defaultcolumns = array( array( 'type' => 'course', 'value' => 'fullname', ) );
The 'type' and 'value' must match an existing column option.
To add default filters use a similar syntax:
$this->defaultfilters = array( array( 'type' => 'course', 'value' => 'fullname', 'advanced' => 0 ) );
The 'type' and 'value' elements match the column the filter is applied against. The 'advanced' option is described in the advanced filter options section.
