            Once the Reports have been created for the account and fleets, it is displayed in the accounts details and reports tab.

            i) The report that was created under every fleet in the account is displayed.

The user can navigate through the stepper by clicking on the next button as well, which will take them through all the steps and allow them to modify any value.

            Similarly, the same reports can be created from the Fleet details page (go to Fleets page-> open a fleet → go to Reports-> click on the :plus:) with the same flow the only difference being the report will be created for the specific selected fleet.
