Icons and images for configuring the user interface
When you are configuring the One Identity Manager tools’ user interfaces you can add icons and images for displaying in different parts of them. The default version of One Identity Manager supplies the icons and images that you can use for configuring the user interface and to create reports. Predefined configurations are maintained by the schema installation and cannot be edited apart from a few properties.
Icons are required to be in PNG format with sizes of 16x16 pixels, 24x24 and 32x32 pixels for the graphical interface.
Icons are required for the following use cases.
Table 126: Meaning of the icons

NOTE: If you edit icons or images that are used in a web application, you must compile the API and the web application afterward with the Database Compiler.
Using predefined database queries
Due to security issues, you cannot run any direct database queries from the user interface or from web applications. Direct database queries, such as those required on forms, must take the form of predefined database queries in One Identity Manager. Database queries are always run with the permissions of the current user. Predefined database queries must be assigned to a permissions group.
You can add more predefined database queries with the Designer. You will find examples on the installation medium in the QBM\dvd\AddOn\ApiSamples directory.
To create predefined database queries
-
In the Designer, select the Base data > Advanced > Predefined SQL category.
-
Select the Object > New menu item.
-
Edit the main data.

Reports in One Identity Manager
One Identity Manager provides the means to create and run multi-object reports, including totals and other aggregate functions. It is also possible to create groups and graphically represent data. Predefined reports are supplied with the schema installation. You can create and edit custom reports with Report Editor.
You can also send reports to specified email addresses using scheduled subscriptions. You can create reports for the current state or over a specified period. For every report, you can create different subscribable reports that can be requested by Web Portal users. In addition, you can embed reports in the Manager or the Designer‘s user interface.
For more information about report subscriptions, see the One Identity Manager Report Subscriptions Administration Guide and the One Identity Manager Web Portal User Guide.
Detailed information about this topic
Working with the Report Editor
The Report Editor is a program for creating and editing reports. The program uses StimulReport.Net components for designing the reports. You can find accurate descriptions and the functionality of individual components in the Stimulsoft online help (www.stimulsoft.com).
NOTE: When you start the Report Editor for the first time, you can select the configuration type (basic, default or professional) for the report. The configuration type determines the range of properties displayed when editing a report. You can change the configuration type later in the edit view using the context menu in the property view.
NOTE: Reports with changes in historical data analyze changes made to data in a One Identity Manager History Database. If the One Identity Manager History Database is linked by an ID to the database’s TimeTrace, you must log in to the Report Editor through an application server that has this ID in its configuration file (appsettings.json). For more information about connecting to the One Identity Manager History Database through an application server and the required configuration, see the One Identity Manager Data Archiving Administration Guide.
