Chapter 8 Reporting

Viewpoint lets you create aggregated data views that combine, organize, and summarize data from multiple sources. You can then create reports that summarize and present data from the aggregated views, and then combine reports into dashboards that display data from a variety of sources in ways that communicate job and workload data at a glance. Specifically:

• The Aggregated Views page lists available aggregated views that summarize and display data. You can extract and manipulate data from various sources to create new aggregated views. See 8.2 Aggregated Views Page for more information.
• The Reports page lists the reports available to you for customizing and including in dashboards. You can also create new reports. See 8.10 Reports Page for more information.
• The Dashboards page lists available dashboards for you to view or edit. You can also combine reports to create new dashboards. See 8.20 Dashboards Page for more information.

Viewpoint is delivered with sample aggregated views, reports, and dashboards for you to customize or use as guides when creating your own aggregated views, reports, and dashboards.
