Reporter
The Stibo Systems Enterprise Platform (STEP) Reporter is a general reporting utility. A number of standard reports are available and are
listed in the Available Reports topic. All reports are launched and managed from the workbench; refer the STEP Workbench UI topic for a
general introduction to the workbench user interface.

The information in this topic covers how to access and use the Reports wizard.

Important: Because reporting relies on a SQL API for the database, the Reports option is only available for those systems using an
Oracle database and not those running on the Cassandra database. Additionally, for those systems running on an Oracle database,
the Reports option does not work with encrypted databases.

Reports Command
The Reports command is reached from the File menu.

Reports Wizard
When clicking Reports from the File menu, a Reports Wizard is launched. This wizard will guide the user through the steps required for
producing a report.

 Asset Hierarchy: In the hierarchy field, it is possible to select a node in the hierarchy, below which the report should run.

Attribute List: Pressing the Add button will open a list of attributes, and you can select one or more from this list. It is also possible to
remove selected attributes from the list using the Del button and to specify the sequence of the attributes in the report by using the
Up and Down buttons.

Advanced Settings

 If Email has been selected, the report will be attached in an email. It is needed to specify the format of the attached report. The
formats can either be CSV or HTML.

 Important: Consider the time zone of the application server compared to that of the workbench (the client) where the schedule is
created or viewed. When scheduling a job, the local time zone is displayed in the workbench, but the time zone of the server is
used to run the background process. Although displayed, the time zone of the client is not included in the instruction to the server
to run the job. This can cause confusion about when the job will run since the scheduled time is not automatically converted to
accommodate potential differences in time zones.

The options for the Later, Weekly, and Monthly selections are as follows:

Later runs the process only once at the specified date and time.

Weekly runs the process on the days select in the specified period until the process is deleted.

Monthly runs the process every month at the specified day and time until the process is deleted.
