Reports

Go back to Integria IMS Documentation Index

The reports section brings together reports from different areas: support, time management and projects. It also incorporates a custom report creator using SQL queries and a report scheduler to be able to plan report creation and delivery automatically from time to time.

There are five types of specific support reports, each with a specific purpose: support report, resolution report, report by ticket types and report by operator.

It is the most comprehensive and general report. With more than thirty different filters, it allows you to create highly detailed reports that allow you to display dozens of PDF graphs, summaries, lists and parameters in a single PDF report. You may use it to make reports by customers, by customer groups, by status, and so on. You may also use a custom ticket search as the source of the report, to further expand the search filter.

The report contains eight general pie charts with some Top-N groupings (tickets with the highest activity, most active customers, by operator, open, closed, and so on).

General statistics and some Top-N in table format:

Listings and trend graphs:

With the report manager you may create templates and a schedule for report generation to be sent by e-mail or stored in the system's report library so that they can be checked later.

They consist of defining a custom cover page, which uses some macros to show the generation date and time and the type of report involved. These report templates can then be used to generate a more professional looking PDF report.

Available macros:

• _fullname_ will replace the name of the report creator.
• _date_ will show the date the report is generated.
• _time_ will show the time the report is generated.
• _reportname_ name and type of report.
