Report Required: Computer Compliance against baselines

Reporting

Hi everyone,

I have seen the reports by Lee and they are pretty impressive, but we require a simple dashboard-style report (a number of pie charts) that show the compliance of groups of clients against a a number of baselines.

I have trawled through all the online documentation for how to build custom reports and either I am missing something or there’s just nothing out there to teach us how to even start coding.

We would like a dashboard that has the following:

5 Pie charts across the top, each chart represents the computers in a Business Unit (Automatic Computer Group) and their compliance against the a selected number of baselines (1-2 normally).

Is this possible? Can the product support multiple charts being shown at once?

We want something like the WSUS pie charts, because management want somewhere to see a very simple view of their current compliance across all business units…

Thanks!

Stefano

Stefano,

Sorry that there is no easy way to accomplish what you need except for doing the HTML/JavaScript scripting.

There are no specific docs or tutorials on building the reports. They require 2 different types of skills, one on writing Session Relevance, and the other any Web presentation technology (HTML/JavaScript, or even Flash).

This example is probably the simpler of the ones available with charts, so a good sample to start with for anyone interested in trying to write something.
