The Reports provide all the power of the Quick View charts in presentation format, ready for printing and reviewing. The Dashboard provides predefined reports for every activity type in the Reports folders. Five types of reports are available:
Quick View: The majority of Dashboard's predefined reports display a Quick View graphic (bar, pie, or spline chart) followed by a table of data. Use Top n, Bottom n, or Trend charts for bird's eye view of all activity over time.
Aggregate: These reports provide totals across users for a summary view of activity.
Detail: These reports reveal data fields from individual user events for a detailed view of activity.
User Summary: These reports present the activities of one user within a specified time period.
Statistics Reports: Master Login only. These reports gather statistics from the database by user, computer, or event. More...
Adjust the Criteria and the Report Settings for any report, except Statistics Reports. Each report opens in a separate Preview window, where you can print, export, or email the report.
