Creating Reports and Templates

Templates allow you to define and save report options, so you can generate the
same type of report each time. If you define a template for a report you
frequently use, you do not have to set up the same report each time you want to
generate it. You just select the template and then generate the report.
IntelliServe
enables you to create alarm, alarm summary, event, event
summary, monitor, and other data report templates provided you have the
appropriate permissions.

Note: You must have the Create Report Template permission for
generating at least one report to create a report template. To generate
a specific type of report, you must have the permission corresponding
to that report type to generate the report. If you have permission to
generate a report but do not have permission to create a report
template, you only will be able to generate reports based on existing
templates for that report type.

After a report template has been defined, you can view a report based on that
template, as described in Generating, Viewing, and Printing Reports on page
8-53.

Creating an Alarm Report

The Alarm Report provides information about all alarms generated by
IntelliServe, including alarm type, alarm status, and users who have
acknowledged alarms. The filters selected for the report are listed in the top
portion of the report; the results of the filter display in the table.

Create an alarm report template in the following way:

1. Select Reports > Alarm from the System Menu.

The Report Templates window displays.
