Defining report criteria

You can limit report output based on one or more criteria.

To define report criteria:

  1. From the IBM® Sterling Control Center Monitor Web Console, select Tools > All Reports to display the Report Listing page.
  2. From the Report Listing page, click the Overflow menu icon on the right side of a particular Report and choose Update or click the Create Report button to create a new report.
  3. Do one of the following:
    • If you are modifying an existing report, go the Filters page and select the criteria used to limit the report output in the Key field.
    • If you are creating a new report, follow the prompts. When page for Filters, select a filter criterion to use in the Key field.
  4. Select the Operator to use to further define the criteria. Choices of operator depend on type of data. For example, numeric-based keys typically take an operator of “equal to,” 'not equal to,” “greater than,” or “less than,” while character-based keys take operators of “matches,” “doesn't match,” and “contains.”
    Attention: Some reports also allow wildcard characters in the selection criteria.
  5. Enter the Value for the criteria.
  6. Click Add Parameter to add multiple criteria. Repeat the previous steps to define multiple selection criteria. Multiple criteria must all be true for a record to be selected (they result in a logical AND condition).
  7. Do one of the following:
    • If you are modifying an existing report, click Update.
    • If you are creating a new report, follow the pages to complete the report.
