Manager Essentials > Reports).

These tasks are:

• Running reports, both system-defined or user defined, and graphs. See Using the Reports Generator.

Defining Custom Report Templates.

• Managing report jobs. You can view the output for completed jobs, abort or delete jobs, etc. See

the archives, or report jobs. See Purging Reports Jobs and Archived Reports.

Note You can select the log level settings for the Reports application using the feature Application Log Level
