How to
Creating an Activities Per User Dashboard Report
You create an Activities Per User dashboard report when you want to enter and save filtering criteria, and then run the report in the future based on the same filtering criteria.
A dashboard report is a report that processes fixed or predefined filtering criteria to generate report output.
Unlike prompted reports, dashboard reports process the report output based on the predefined filtering criteria and generate the report output when you select the report. You do not need to enter filtering criteria or click the Run button to generate the report.
In the Reports Tree, dashboard reports are identified by a red dot next to the report name. The icon does not appear next to dashboard reports in the System Tree pane in WorkStation.

You can create dashboard reports in both WorkStation and your Web browser using the WebReports dashboard option. You select the option when you want to create a report that uses the same filtering criteria each time you run the report. For example, suppose you want an alarm report to process with a fixed date range, such as week to date. When you create the report, you can enter the fixed date range and then save the report as a dashboard report. The next time you run the report, the report processes using the fixed date range as the filtering criteria. You do not need to reenter the date range to filter your report output.
To generate and view a dashboard report in WorkStation, you select the report in the Reports folder in the System Tree pane.
