Workgroup Modeling Reports

Modelers typically work from a common set of libraries, models, and submodels, and must be able to share information about these objects with other users. One way to share information is by using reports, which details the information and definitions for a model in a tabular format.

The Data Browser lets you generate predefined reports to view the contents of specific libraries and models, view the changes and conflicts for specific models, and view the security structure for the database. You can use either the standard or customized reports to see detailed information for a specific model.

All users can run a number of reports in the Data Browser to view the contents of specific libraries and models, and use standard and customized reports to see model information in more detail. However, there are two specific reporting tasks that as the administrator, you can perform:

• Security Manager reports
• Sharing reports

After you generate a report, you can customize the report content and appearance, and then create and save your own custom report views. You can search for information in a report, find a change of value in a column, and hide report rows that do not match the search criteria you specify.
