Reports

SmartCloud Cost Management produces chargeback and resource accounting reports based on IT usage data from your organization. To help you to easily create reports that display the information that you need, SmartCloud Cost Management includes a variety of standard reports that you can use as templates.

Cognos Reports

Cognos Reports are located within Tivoli® Common Reporting and are named after the report itself. There are no files for the Cognos® reports because all actions on the reports are performed within Cognos. It is possible to export the report definition as XML if required. For more information about exporting a report, see Report Studio Professional Authoring User Guide available by clicking F1 from the Report Studio.
