It is helpful to save a report containing your choice of standard formatting which can then be used as a basis for all new reports in your database. Access does let you save a template which is used as the basis of any new reports (created in design mode) but it will not include any controls or fields - i.e. it is blank. I prefer to use a report containing common fields, labels, lines and formatting as a basis for new reports.
Some text boxes can be added to the report header and footer including items such as todays date and the page number.
="Printed: " & Format(Now(),"dd mmm yy hh:nn")
="Page " & [Page] & " of " & [Pages]
You can add a Label to your footer and it can be programmed to display the name of the report. To do this, edit the Label properties and rename it as 'RepNameFooter'. Then edit the Report properties and select the On Open event.

Get all relevant information.
Analyze the readers of the report before starting writing it.
Take care that the report be complete, concise, concrete, correct, clitchless, cohesive and considerate.
