Report types
In the Report Manager, you create reports that you can use to search, filter, sort, and link to other reports. You use reports to show data.
The following list describes the report types:
- Report
- A basic tabular report.
- Query
- A basic report that uses the enhanced renderer mode.
- Graphic
- Uses a query and information from web graphics that are based on computer-aided design (CAD) drawings.
- Chart
- Shows the data in a chart, such as a pie, bar, line, and stacked bar chart.
- External
- A report that was created with a third-party software, such as BIRT.
- Reserve Legacy
- A query that returns the results of available resources only.
- Reserve
- A query that acts like the Reserve Legacy query, but also uses a calendar to determine the availability of resources.
- Summary
- A tabular report that shows the totals without the detail records.
- Hierarchy
- Uses a query to show information in a hierarchical structure.
- Metric
- Aggregates instance data or fact tables in a table or chart that has drill paths, filters, and related reports.
