Defining Reports (Report Manager)

The Report Manager provides pre-defined reports to retrieve data. You can use Report Manager to view, run, add, or modify reports. These reports can be used in automated tasks.

The report templates include the following:

Filter-based reports

Reports defined using a filter, similar to the Filter toolbar button in many modules. This is the most straightforward way to define a report. Filter-based reports are generated to a user based on the hierarchical location to which the user belongs to.

For more complex reports, use one of the following SQL-based options.

Object SQL-based reports

Reports defined using explicit SQL that returns the unique IDs of the items to display, which are otherwise presented in a similar fashion as a filter-based report.

SQL-based reports

Reports defined using explicit SQL.
