Depending on the report type and your user rights, you can create, edit, run, and perform bulk actions on reports as well as import and export custom report definitions.

In addition, you can use the Report Designer to create and run custom reports with data from across the database—everything from Open Positions for Vessels to financial information. The Report Designer provides a live preview, so you can see your edits in real time, and the flexibility to extract your data in a way that is most meaningful to you. You can apply filters, sort and group results, aggregate data, and create a custom layout for your report. More advanced capabilities include conditional formatting and creating custom columns with expressions. You can even create a Scheduled Task from the report to automate the execution and delivery of a report on a periodic basis (see the Messaging Service Manual).

When CFGEnableReportEPPExcelOutput is disabled, the Microsoft Office API is used to create the Excel output.

Note:

  • When this flag is enabled along with CFGEnableReportEPPExcelOutput, Excel .xls files will open with a file format and extension mismatch error, however, the file will still open.

  • Reports with large numbers of columns may render incorrectly in .doc format.

CFGAPIReportsRawColumnNames

If enabled, getting reports via the API will assign column names based on table.column format.
