Reports

In Siterra, reports retrieve specific, formatted data from the data warehouse and present it for viewing. You can create reports containing a variety of information for quick insight into business metrics. Siterra uses MicroStrategy for Business Intelligence reporting.

Report data is available for all object types except Assets and Projects.

Access Siterra reports:

1. In the top menu bar, select Reports.

2. Click Business Intelligence.

   A new window appears containing MicroStrategy reporting functionality.

Reports consist of the following components:

• Attributes (Rows): A business concept that provides context to the data.

• Metrics (Columns): Calculations of numeric data that are important to the business.

• Cells: Values that are produced by calculating data retrieved from the data warehouse.

• Templates (Display): The structure of a report that specifies the layout of the rows and columns, as well as how the data is displayed and formatted.

• Filters: Define the result set by excluding unimportant or unwanted data from a report.  Filtering data makes the information more meaningful and easier to consume.

• Prompts: Questions that are presented at run time which allow you either to filter the data or to specify the template.
