Views in the Report Editor

The Report Editor has several views for editing reports.

Table 148: Report Editor views
View Description

Report list

All reports are displayed by category. Uses a filter condition to limit the number of reports displayed.

Edit view for reports

Reports are designed with the Report Designer in the edit pane. Using the Report Designer’s toolbar, you can place the controls you want on the report form.

NOTE: Use the online help from Stimulsoft StimulReport.Net (www.stimulsoft.com) as a basis for the report design.

Property dialog box

Use the view edit the properties of the selected report. A default context menu is available for input fields.

SQL log

Database queries are listed in this view. Use query logging to look for errors and to optimize the report during the design phase. For more information, see Logging database queries.

Report Editor program settings

General configuration settings are specified in a ReportEdit2.exe.config configuration file. Valid global configuration settings can also be defined through the Global.cfg global configuration file in One Identity Manager's own format. The configuration files are stored in the program directory. For more detailed information, see the One Identity Manager Process Monitoring and Troubleshooting Guide.

To change the program settings in the Report Editor

  • In the Report Editor, select the Database | Settings menu item.

Table 149: Program settings
Setting Meaning

Language

Language for formatting data, such as data formats, time formats, or number formats.

Other user interface language

Language for the user interface. The initial program login uses the system language for the user interface. Changes to the language settings take effect after the program has been restarted.

The language is set globally for all One Identity Manager programs, which means the language setting does not have to be configured for each program individually.

Show code tab

Set this option to display the script code edit tab in the Report Editor.

Ask on save without change label

Change labels should be used for changes to reports. Set this option so that an alert box is called when changes are saved without a change label.

Max. number of preview rows

Specify how many data sets

Logging database queries

Use database query logging in the Report Editor to look for errors and to optimize the report during the design phase. The execution time and the command that was run are logged.

  • In the Report Editor, open the log window using SQL log at the bottom of the program.

Creating and editing reports in the Report Editor

NOTE: Reports with historical data changes analyze data changes in a One Identity Manager History Database. If the One Identity Manager History Database is linked by an ID to the One Identity Manager database’s TimeTrace, you must log in to the Report Editor through an application server that has this ID in its configuration file (web.config). For detailed information about connecting to the One Identity Manager History Database through an application server and the required configuration, see the One Identity Manager Operational Guide.

Create and edit reports with the Report Editor program. Reports are stored in the database DialogReport table. The following steps are required to create a report:

  1. Defining report properties, data sources, and report parameters.

  2. Designing the report form with the Report Designer.

Predefined reports supplied with One Identity Manager by default, automatically customized during schema installation. If customizations are required to the default reports:

  1. Create a copy of the report.

  2. Edit the required report properties.

  3. Use the customized report from now on.

When you add or copy a report, the property dialog box opens first, which you use to enter the general data for the report, the data source required and an parameters for the report definition. Then a new report form is created in the edit view with the Report Designer. This forms the basis of the report design. Using the Report Designer’s toolbar, you can place the controls you want on the report form.

NOTE: Use the online help from Stimulsoft StimulReport.Net (www.stimulsoft.com) as a basis for the report design.
