Viewing report history

Once a report instance has run, you can view summary information about it. OpenEdge Management displays the following information for each completed report instance:

A report's exit code indicates whether or not the process succeeded. Typically, an exit code of zero indicates success, while a nonzero code indicates an error. For more information on nonzero exit codes, search the log file. If a report running in Windows returns a positive, nonzero code, use the net helpmsg command for information.

To view a report's history:

  1. If the report's Summary page is not displayed, choose the report from the Defined Reports section of the list frame. The Summary page appears.
  2. Click View Report History. The Report History page appears.
  3. In the Report History query section, select the period of time.
  4. Click Submit. The report's history appears on the bottom of the Report History page:
Note: The previous steps show how to access the history of a single report. For the history of all reports run, click View Report History from the OpenEdge Management Reports page (shown in Figure 1–1). Continue from Step 3 in the previous procedure. The query returns results for any reports run during the date range.

To remove a report's history, follow the previous steps. After submitting the query dates, click Purge Selection. Once you purge a selection, you can no longer access the report's history for that time frame.
