Using the Reporting Framework, Designer users can add customized reports to the LogicNets standard reporting package available on the main portal page.

Standard Reports

With appropriate access rights, which you control through the User Management package, users can view a number of "audit-trail" type reports based on all user sessions. These are standard reports that are always available through the Reporting package.  You can create any of the standard reports for all of your packages, for a specific one application, and for any range of dates. The reports include:

• Session overview. This contains a filterable summary table of session data, including start/finish time, duration, user, and package.
• Session logs. These are detailed event logs that show all triggers and data points logged by the system automatically. They also contain user-defined events created in a logicnet using the Add Answer to Change Log part.

Additionally, if you have the LogicNets third-party charting plug-in feature enabled in your account, you have the following charts available for you to view on screen or download as data, image, and PDF:

• Sessions per hour/day/month
• Sessions per package
• Sessions per user
• Users per package/role
• Total and average session time by user

Customized Reports

Advanced Designers can add customized business reporting to the Reporting package. Broadly speaking the steps required to add a customized report include the following:

• Create a new project BASED on the Reporting Framework. The framework settings allow the Designer to specify a custom configuration logicnet.
• Create a data table or "view" in the resources/data folder that holds and updates the reporting data, if it is different from the existing session overview or session logs.
  • You can design the application with a logicnet that writes the appropriate business data to this data table.
• Add a logicnet into the reports folder. The system presents each logicnet as a custom report in the dropdown list of available reports.
• Generate the report using a dbgrid or summary tables or display chart node. See Display Chart for more information.
