Instance Manager
Administrator power tool - analyze the entire report instance environment at once
and act on the results.
Now you have a fast way to manage your ever growing report instances and folder
structure!
Instance Manager provides the administrator with enhanced capability
to analyze the entire report instance environment at once, search for specific instance
processing states within specific time periods and then optionally apply action
commands to one or more report instances simultaneously.
For example, an administrator may be interested in identifying scheduled reports
that have failed within the last 24 hours regardless of report group and may then
wish to delete or reschedule some or all of them. An administrator may wish to print
a group of reports simultaneously, once again regardless of report group.
Select report instances by wildcard folder/report name, processing status, instance
owner, category, date range, within the last minute, hour, day, week, 30 days, etc.
Select multiple report instances simultaneously and apply bulk actions such as delete,
stop, print, reschedule, copy to folder, etc. Select a specific instance and apply
actions such as view, properties, etc.
Export Instance Properties - exports to csv a comprehensive list
of report instance properties, including multiple data sources, so you can perform
analysis on complete instance information.
Re-schedule with Edit - powerful report rescheduling - you can
select a group of already run report instances and then edit specific instance properties
before rescheduling . . .
