Migration reports

Several reports are provided to help you plan and manage the migration process.

Before you can use the reports, they must be enabled. To enable reports, an administrator must import the reports into the database, create request pages for the reports, and authorize access to the reports.

Package Definition report

The Package Definition report shows the contents of a package definition. A change or deployment manager can use this report to review and approve a package definition.

If you generate the report before a package definition is approved, the report can be shared or sent by email to the appropriate manager. If you generate the report after a package definition is approved, the report shows any packages that were created in the source environment from the package definition.

Package Life Cycle report

The Package Life Cycle report shows the status changes of a package, the user who changed the status, and the date and time of each status change. You can use this report to audit packages.

In a source environment, this report also shows the targets to which a package was distributed. In a target environment, the report shows only the status changes of a package.
