Help Topic: Reporting Improvements (Reportopia)


Reportopia is our project name for improving the Custom Reporting within Tracker to offer simpler reporting views with more power to report across all data within Tracker.

The purpose of Reportpia was to:

  • Halve the number of report views from the original 120 down to a more concise 60
  • Provide clearer grouping of fields within the Report Views to make selecting column more logical
  • Provide custom field columns across all related recrd types within a single view
  • Provide more views covering more new features in Tracker into standard reporting

 

What will happen to my old reports?

Nothing.  All existing report views currently in use will be retained and no changes to existing reports will be made.  These report views will continue to be available for reporting purposes.

 

What will happend to the old unused Report Views?

With Reportopia, custom fields for all three record types are available for you to report on:

 

In addition to being able to select any of these Custom Fields, filters can also be applied to these fields:
