Sorting, Filtering, and Grouping Reports
Selecting Data for a Report
Each report has selection criteria specific to that report. These criteria filter the report.
For example:
—The Horizontal Link Cable Report window contains radio buttons to select All Criteria, By Date Tested, By HL Type, and By Location.
—Selecting All means that all Horizontal Links stored in Cable Management are included in the report.
—If you filter By Date Tested, the HLs shown on the report will be those within the date range you have specified in the From and To fields.
—Filtering by a specific HL Type, such as Voice, means the report will only show the voice horizontal links.
—If you filter by Location, the report will list all horizontal links for the location you have specified.
Grouping Data on a Report
Select a radio button in the Group By frame by None or Type, e.g., Asset Type, Backbone Type, Pathway Type. Certain reports have more ways to group, such as Mainframe Detail Report, which has radio buttons for None, Controller/Gateway, Location, and PU ID.
Sorting a Report
The data can be sorted. You can sort what you'll see on the report by up to three fields, and in either ascending or descending order.
Report Detail
In the Report Detail area, you may check details specific to that report for inclusion. For example, in the Asset Details report you may check Show Accounting Information and/or Show Attributes. In the Space report, you may select Show Faceplates.
Header Color
The Header Color allows you to use colored headings for various parts of the report. Check the Use Color icon, and select colors for Title, Group Header, Detail Header, and Detail Entry.
