About Custom Reports

The Report Editor is used to build a custom report. The process used to generate a report is shown in the

figure below. In this diagram, the arrows represent the flow of data, while the icons represent the

processing stages that the data goes through.

Report generation process

Starting from the top left, and working clockwise:

 The Report Type ( “Report Type”) specifies the basic properties for the report.

 Report Parameters ( “Report Parameters” in this chapter) are used as an input to the report

generation process, before any data is selected.

 Report data is taken from the Data Source ( “Data Source” in this chapter), and by selecting fields of

interest ( “Select Fields” in this chapter). Some fields are used directly (“source fields”), while some

fields are derived from the source fields (“derived fields”).

 One or more Source Filters ( “Source Filters” in this chapter) is used to restrict which data is included

in the report.

 In some reports, data is classified and grouped into Bins and Groups ( “Classification Groups”). Using

these classification groups allows for summary information to be calculated ( “Statistics and Metrics” in

this chapter).

 The result of the report is one or more Output Series ( “Output Series” in this chapter), which can

contain data from the source fields, derived fields, or the statistic and metric fields calculated from the

classification groups.

 Output Filters ( “Output Filters” in this chapter) can be used to select specific data to output from the

report.

 The report itself consists of charts, tables and text content that are arranged using the Presentation

Options ( “Presentation Options” in this chapter) to yield the Final Report ( “Final Report” in this

chapter).

The data classification steps in the top right corner of the diagram are detailed in in this chapter. See

“Report History” and “Groups” in this chapter. Understanding how to use bins and groups will allow

you to classify related data records and extract statistics of interest from them.
