7.a) Creating Custom Reports

Custom reports can be created using several different parameters: categories, whether or not an incident exists,

timeframes, accounts that generated more than a certain number of signals during the timeframe, fire alarms only,

troubles only, etc, etc, etc. All of these custom reports can be saved for future use.

To create a custom report, first select the standard report that most closely matches the desired parameters. For this

example, let’s assume that we

need an activity report of our

RESTAURANT accounts for

the past WEEK and we want

to save the report for future

use.

First, select the “History Last

Seven Days” report from the

list. (A)

This will

automatically set the

timeframe (Date) to 1 week.

Then type in the name of the

report. (B)

Since we want

activity for our

RESTAURANT accounts

only, click the appropriate

CATEGORY. (C)

This report should show

details for any incidents that

occurred, so check the “Show

Incident Details” box. (D)

To save the custom report,

click “Save As” and the

report will be saved with the

name provided. (E)

Once saved, your new report will be in the list of Activity Reports. (F)

The number of

reports that can be created and saved is unlimited.

The added use of Categories for custom reports gives dealers a powerful tool to use for

their subscribers. The Report Manager also allows the printing of Call List, Passcodes

and Zone Descriptions.

Examples of reports can be viewed on the following two pages.
