title: How To Create A Report in Magento
body: <p>I am trying to create a report in Magento. I followed the tutorial from Alan Storm on getting things started in the admin panel <a href="http://alanstorm.com/magento_admin_controllers" rel="nofollow">http://alanstorm.com/magento_admin_controllers</a> and I now have a grasp of how to get the controllers working in the admin panel.</p>
  
  <p>I would like to take this to the next step and create reports. The reports that I am creating I think I just want them to work like the grid widgets that are used throughout the entire Magento admin panel. </p>
  
  <p>However, I am hard pressed to find a good tutorial on how to create these. If someone could explain how these work or point me towards a tutorial that worked for them, I would be very grateful.</p>
