When you set up Global Reporter, the management server pulls the data from the local database views at these sites through the database link. The flow of the data is shown by the arrows in the figure below. A global reporting view on the server running Global Reporter contains information in the database that can be used for local and global reports. The management server in New York is referred to as a Global Reporter server because it has Global Reporter enabled.
