Manage Report View
vCenter Chargeback Manager provides a report view that is used by all the generated reports. You can
configure the report view to display a specific set of information in each of the generated reports.
Like most reports, the chargeback report has multiple sections, such as Header, Title, Body, and Footer.
The Title section appears only on the first page of the report. The contents in these sections can be modified as
per your requirements. The information to be displayed in the Body section is defined when creating the report.
The Header section is the report header that appears on all pages expect the first. The Footer section is the
report footer that appears on all the pages.
Changes made to the report view is reflected only in the reports generated after the report view is changed.
Existing archived reports are not affected by the changes made to the report view.
You must have the Super User role to perform this task.
