Reporting - Report item table
The report item table can be used to present information that is stored in the database and that
can be presented in a table using ordinary database queries.
Before you start creating an item open the template in which you want to place the item. Select
the template in the report template tree and select from the menu report - report builder - open
report template, or right click the mouse on the template and select open report template.
To create a table item select report - report builder - add report item - table... from the menu.
The "Report item table" window will pop up.
You can give the table a distinct name and the description can be either the query contents or a
description of your own.
If you want to present data from a large database you do not always want to see all the data in
the table. At the bottom of this window the number of output rows can be limited. If you define a
table limited to 200 rows, then only 200 rows from the database will be presented in the table.
Which values will be presented (e.g. the first or the last 200) is defined in the query (see the
"order by" line in the picture below).
If you want to limit the size of the table presentation on the report then select table formatting.
In this query example a couple of variables are used that were already defined, presented
between %%. See also report variable query for an example of how the variable %COMPUTER%
was created.
The result of this query will be a table per computer with a list containing the number of log errors
per source which were counted by count(*).
