The updates list view launches reports in Detailed view, scoped to whatever
choices you'd made for the list for needed/failed/whatever.
The search dialog launches all reports initial as summary reports, because
there are no filter options directly available from the search. A detailed
report would likely be far more information than you wanted.
You can use the "Report View" to change from Summary to Detailed, or change
the filter options and re-run the report.
