Sorting, Filtering, and Grouping Reports

Selecting Data for a Report

Each report has selection criteria specific to that report. These criteria

filter the report.
For example:

—The Horizontal Link Cable Report window contains radio buttons to

select All Criteria, By Date Tested, By HL Type, and By Location.

—Selecting All means that all Horizontal Links stored in Cable

Management are included in the report.

—If you filter By Date Tested, the HLs shown on the report will be those

within the date range you have specified in the From and To fields.

—Filtering by a specific HL Type, such as Voice, means the report will

only show the voice horizontal links.

—If you filter by Location, the report will list all horizontal links for the

location you have specified.

Grouping Data on a Report

Select a radio button in the Group By frame by None or Type, e.g.,

Asset Type, Backbone Type, Pathway Type. Certain reports have more

ways to group, such as Mainframe Detail Report, which has radio

buttons for None, Controller/Gateway, Location, and PU ID.

Sorting a Report

The data can be sorted. You can sort what you'll see on the report by up

to three fields, and in either ascending or descending order.

Report Detail

In the Report Detail area, you may check details specific to that report

for inclusion. For example, in the Asset Details report you may check

Show Accounting Information and/or Show Attributes. In the Space

report, you may select Show Faceplates.

Header Color

The Header Color allows you to use colored headings for various parts of

the report. Check the Use Color icon, and select colors for Title, Group

Header, Detail Header, and Detail Entry.
