Types of Reports

MessageStats Reports hosts two types of reports: stock reports and custom reports.

Stock reports are delivered with the product. For information about stock reports, see Introducing the Lotus and IBM Notes Reports .

Subscriptions allow you to generate reports on a regular schedule. You can set up email notifications that either link to the reports or include attachments that contain actual report data. For information, see Configuring Report Subscriptions .

You can create custom reports using the Web Report Wizard. You can build your own reports based on existing data sources. You can select fields, filters, format, grouping, and sorting options. Custom reports can be edited, depending on your security permissions. For information about the Web Report Wizard, see Creating Custom Reports .

Report Graphs

MessageStats provides graphing capabilities with many of the available reports. Where graphs are available, the number of servers and the date periods you select result in the following graphing model:

Table 1. Types of graphs provided with reports.

Comparison between two or more servers.	N servers, 1 day	Bar graph
Trends for one server over two or more days.	1 server, N days	Line graph

Each report provides field descriptions in the tooltips text for the report columns. You can also view field descriptions in the Information page for that report. For details about the Information page, see Viewing Report Information .
