When do you generate your results?

Do you have a preference where in your program you create you measured results. I find if I wait till the end of the program it takes longer because I have to go back and identify my features.
So once I've named my datums I'll create the results while the ID's are still fresh in my head.

    I dimension at the end of the program.
    The report follows the drawings
    That way the operator doesn't have to play scripture chase looking for dims.
