Generate Log Reports - the External Data Tracking Tab

You can print reports that track components of an account based on imported data. The reports show what has been imported, when using an import structure specification.

Procedure

  1. From the Transfer menu, click Log Reports.
  2. Click the External Data Tracking tab.
  3. Specify the From and To date for the data import that you want to track and click Open.

    A list of all data imports within the specified range appears.

  4. If you want to filter by a specific import specification, select the Use Filter check box, and select an import specification from the list.

    If you do not select a filter, all import specifications are shown in the specification column.

  5. Indicate whether you want to Sort by Controller or Sort by Source.
  6. If you want to exclude calculations and operations, and only see the source mapping to IBM® Controller, select the Exclude Transformation Information check box.
  7. If you also want to show the files imported by other users to the same database, select the All Users check box at the bottom left side of the screen.
  8. Choose an import log and click the Preview or the Print button to generate the report.
  9. From the Maintain menu, click Configuration, General and then, on the General 3 tab specify how long you want to store the log reports before they automatically are erased.
