5.3 Creating Custom Reports

You can create customized reports by selecting the Custom Reports tab from the Main Menu or by choosing the Excel Client from the Extras Menu.

NOTE: The web interface and Excel client for creating custom reports are identical except that the Excel client charting functions are accessed separately from the main interface and provide some additional flexibility.

In general, there are two main steps involved in creating a report:

1Choose a report, select the sample resolution, select the InServ system(s) and/or domain(s) and click on the Build Report Menu button. This will build the report menu for that report in a new window (or tab).

2Set the appropriate controls in the report menu and click on the Generate Report button. The report will be generated in a new window (or tab).

A detailed description of the various menu choices are described in the following sections.
