Adding Custom Reports

All Stat reports are defined by corresponding .jrxml files. Custom reports are created by formatting a .jrxml file using the 3rd party reporting tool Jaspersoft Studio. You can create a report file from scratch, or you use a copy of an existing file as a starting point. For more information on creating report files, see Appendix: Custom Report Files .

After you have defined the .jrxml file that is the basis for your custom report, you can add it to the Stat Report Library.

To add a custom report:
1
Click New.
This opens the Define New Custom Report window.
2
Click Load and select the custom report .jrxml file you want use as the basis for the report.
The file name is displayed in the Report field without the extension. This file name must be unique. This is the name that the agent searched for to compile the report.
3
Enter a short description of up to 40 characters.
This description is displayed in the Stat Report Library.
4
Enter a long description of up to 250 characters.
This description appears in the Presentation Preview and can give the user an idea of what data will appear on the report or when to use this report.
5
Select a report category or enter a new category.
You can add a custom report to a predefined category, or you can add it to a new category that you create.
6
Select a report format type.
The format is a graphical representation of what the report will look like displayed in the Presentation Previews.
7
Set the security level for the report (1-99 with 1 being the least secure).
8
Click OK.
Stat adds the report file information to the Stat Repository and loads the report to <stat_home>report\custom\format on the Stat Central Agent file structure.

Turning off the Emailing of Blank Reports

Stat reports are configured to bring up a blank page with a report title if there is no data. This is intended to demonstrate to the user that the report actually ran. Some sites however may not want Stat to email blank reports.

Stat report files (.jrxml files) are stored on the Stat Central agent under Stat_home/report/%category%/format. The subfolder they are stored under is named the same as the Report Category drop down listing on the Stat Report Wizard. Under each category subfolder the .jrxml files are located in the /format folder.

Each report has a file name that starts with dw_ and has a .jrxml extension. The linkage between the file name and the report name is in the STAT_REPORT_DEFN table.

Select DESCR, DW_NAME, CATEGORY from STAT_REPORT_DEFN where DESCR like '%Report name from Stat Report Wizard%' will give you the file name that needs to be modified.

As with customized reports, if you modify the .jrxml file in situ it may be overridden the next time you upgrade Stat. If this is a concern, then follow the procedure for creating a custom report which places a copy of the .jrxml file in the stat_home/report/custom directory/format folder and add the custom report to the Stat repository.

To turn off the emailing of blank reports:
1
Open the .jrxml file with Jaspersoft Studio.
2
Right click on the report name under Outline view and choose Show Properties.
3
In Report Properties View, open the Advanced tab, scroll down to the option When No Data and change the value from All Sections, No Detail to No Pages.
4
Close the Properties Window and save the report.
5
If there is a corresponding file name with a .jasper extension in the folder you save the file in, delete the .jasper file.
This is a compiled report file. The Central agent will recreated the .jasper file with the new properties the next time the report is run.
6
Run the scheduled report in Stat.
If there is no data on the report the Central agent will log a message:
“Job ID:xxx generated empty report. Email has been skipped.”

Version Control Management Connection Maintenance

You can integrate Stat with your 3rd party version control management (VCM) system. This allows you to save your file objects from a VCM repository directly into Stat to control the process and the migration of the objects. Currently Stat supports the following VCM platforms: SVN, PVCS, Perforce, and CVS.

VCM Maintenance security is controlled by the following user class rights:

•
3rd Party VCM Connection - Add
•
3rd Party VCM Connection - Change
* 
IMPORTANT: Before connecting to a VCM system, be aware of the following:
•
All Stat VCM functionality is performed by the Stat Central Agent. Except for P4 and TFS, this means that for the connection to be established the machine hosting the Stat Central Agent must have a client copy of the VCM software installed and that the Stat Central Agent must be running.
•
For Stat to archive file objects from a VCM repository, the subdirectories where the object types reside in the repository must match the subdirectories in the source environments. For example, if *sql files reside in a .../admin/sql subdirectory in the source environment, the sql files in the VCM repository must also reside in a .../admin/sql directory.

The 3rd Party Version Control Connection maintenance table is displayed in a standard maintenance window. To open this window, select Maintenance | General | VCM Connect.

To connect to a VCM repository:
1
In the 3rd Party Version Control Connection maintenance table, click New.
2
Specify unique code which identifies the VCM repository.
3
Enter a description of the VCM repository.
4
Select the type of VCM platform you are connecting to.
Options include CVS, PVCS, SVN, P4, GIT, and TFS.
After defining the VCM repository, you must define the required connection parameter values that allows Stat to connect to the VCM repository.
Click Apply to save your work.
5
Click Setup.
This displays the VCM Connection Setup window where you specify the connection parameter values. The list of parameters varies depending on the type of VCM platform you are connecting to.
6
Enter the parameter values required to establish a connection to the VCM repository.
See the following tables for a description of each parameter. Which parameter values are required will depend on the configuration details of your VCM repository.
