Customize and organize reports

Nova reports can be customized and organized.

Customizing reports

There are several ways to customize reports so they are specific to your organization. You can customize a report's sections and layout. You can customize the data source and fields used in each section. And, you can customize how information displays in each section by applying sorting and filters.

Searching reports

You can search for reports based on the title or description.

Cloning reports

You can clone any of the reports. After you give the new report a unique name, you can customize the new report by adding/removing sections, fields, and sorts/filters, so the new reports show exactly what you want to see.

17. Optionally, choose whether to drill down data fields. These can be fields you have selected for your section, or other fields within the data source.

info

NOTE: You have the option to view the raw data in your chart.

You can now save your chart, and close the section.

Custom chart example: Microsoft Entra ID users by location

You can create an Microsoft Entra ID Users by Location report. The report shows your organization's Microsoft Entra ID users, broken down by location and department.

The report's second section is a stacked bar graph with the Microsoft Entra ID Users data source. Finally, the report contains a table which shows users' display names, country/region and departments. Here is how the finished report looks:

Custom chart example: License utilization

Here is another example of creating a report in the Nova Report Center.

Creating a report using License data sources allow you to get a scope of your license utilization within your tenant. This includes

·Assigned units – licenses applied to users

·Unassigned units – licenses not applied to users

·Idle units – licenses applied to users but are not being used i.e. disabled/deleted users

 

See below to view the steps on how to create a chart section on your license usage.

 

Custom chart example: Stacked inbound/outbound mail chart

Creating stacked graphs allows you to view multiple data fields in one easy to analyze chart. For example, in the chart below, we will create a stacked bar graph that shows the sum of inbound mail and outbound mail in one chart.

To begin creating your stacked chart:

The data should now appear within your section. Click close section, then save. This chart can download as a PDF, if desired.

InbOutMail

Creating a custom table section

Tables are the best method to view a wide variety of data within one report. Unlike the other report types in the Report Center, tables allow you to view multiple fields with data that you select to suit your needs.

 

9.Select your data fields for your table. You can add as many fields as you require.

10. Add aggregation, sorting and filtering to your table.

info

NOTE:  Aggregation brings the amount of items you have in a field together. For example, if users are involved in multiple departments, aggregating on the Department field with the Count operator will show the number of departments for that user, rather than the name of the departments.

11. Choose whether to enable paging. If paging is enabled, your table will be divided into multiple pages, depending on the amount of data collection for the section.

info

NOTE:  Having paging enabled or disabled will not affect your download of your report; all data results will be listed within one table in your downloaded table.

12. Choose your initial page size. This is the amount of records within each page.

 

You can now save your chart, and close the section.

Custom table example: Spam and malware report (30 days)

You can create an Office 365 Spam and Malware report section that shows the number of spam and malware attempts over the last 30 days. The report section includes a table showing all fields related to the Office 365 Mail Traffic data source. It is sorted in descending order by scan date, and the results are filtered so only the last 30 days display. Here is how the finished report section looks:
