Description of this report.
The report theme displayed on the Analysis page.
The roles with access to this report via the Analysis menu.
Report visibility. This allows you to indicate where the report will be displayed, as the report is not only displayed on the Analysis page, but also in the User's Report tab.
Go to the Build tab to build the report.
Additional Information
In edit mode, a report in the platform is made up of:
A tab called Report , which allows you to create the report information sheet,
A tab called Construction , which allows you to build the query and filters of the report,
A tab called Report Visualization that allows you to run and then view the report.
Create a report from the Build tab
Open the Analysis menu
The analysis tool available in the Syfadis Xperience platform allows you to create the structure of tables or graphs that can be viewed by clicking on the name of the report in the list of analyses.
Procedure
Click the New button.
Choose the report template from the different templates offered.
Fill in the general information on the report tab.
Create the query for this report, by clicking the Build tab.
Choose the type of report from the proposed list (pie chart, table,): the type will then condition the form to be filled in (for a table, we fill in X columns, while for a histogram it is 2 pieces of information to fill in).
For a table report, the maximum number of columns is 40. The Build tab refreshes and displays the form to create the query for the selected type.
If you have chosen a report with a graphical representation (histogram, pie chart, etc.), then other options for displaying the report appear on the screen. For example , you can choose:
The choice of colours : default colour or pastel colour
Choosing a 3D chart or not
The choice to stack values (available for some chart types)
The choice of the height of the graph in pixels (available for certain types of graphs).
The choice of the width of the graph in pixels (available for certain types of graphs).
Then choose the data to be displayed in the report: Each chart focuses on measuring indicators (or measures) called values that are presented according to axes of analysis called dimensions. Criteria and parameters can also be chosen.
Dimensions
Click the Add Dimension button. A window will appear where you can choose the size to display.
Choose Dimension from the drop-down list. For some dimensions (such as dates), you can choose the format in the Function field. Finally, if you want to customise the name to be displayed for this information, you can type in the Label field the new name to be given to this dimension to be displayed.
Click the Save button.
Add a new dimension by clicking on the Add Dimension button, and repeat the process above.
Delete the dimension by clicking the Delete icon at the end of the line.
Edit the dimension by clicking the Edit icon at the end of the line.
Additional information about dimensions :
Function: Depending on the selected dimension, this field may have data. Example : For a dimension of type Date of birth, we propose the function Year, Year and Month, and so on.
Label: Ability to change the default dimension label, e.g . if the dimension is named Date of birth, the user can set Born on and the report will have that label.
Avoid duplicates: Group data from a collection/list to avoid duplicate rows for an entity.
Values
Click on the Add Value button! A window will appear where you can choose the value to display.
Choose the Value from the drop-down list.
Click the Save button.
Total row: An option to add a Total row to a table report to display a total for each column of values in the table. The total row appears on the last page of the report.
Add a new value by clicking the Add Value button, and repeat the process explained above.
Delete the value by clicking the Delete icon at the end of the line.
Change the value by clicking the Edit icon at the end of the line.
Additional information about values:
For some values, you can choose the unit you choose at the Unit row level. (Example : For a value of type Duration, we propose the units Seconds, Minutes, Hours, and so on.)
Precision: select a precision from 0 to 10 = number of digits after the decimal point, option in addition to rounding – use only for a decimal value, e.g. for a note.
Rounding: selection of one of the nearest values, truncated, option in addition to precision – use only for a decimal value, e.g. for a note :
Closest: Rounded to the number furthest from zero – by default.
Truncated: Keeping N digits after the decimal point.
For some values (such as dates), you can choose the format at the Function row level.
For some values (such as Progress), you can choose the aggregation format (average, sum, maximum,) at the Aggregate row level.
Finally, if you want to customise the name to be displayed for this information, you can type in the Label field the new name to give to this value to be displayed.
Criteria
A criterion allows you to filter the query (we filter the data on the Word training, and the platform will only display the data of this training). A criterion is therefore transparent to the user who launches the report.
If you wish, choose criteria (filters) and parameters.
To add a criterion, position yourself at the query level where you want to create this criterion, click on the New Criteria button.
A new window will open, choose a criterion (structure, ...) from the list called Property:
For some values (such as time), you can choose the unit you choose at the Unit row level.
For some values (e.g. dates), you can choose the format at the Function row level.
Depending on the criterion, you may then choose an operator (equal to, greater than,) at the level of the Comparator row and a Value.
Click on the Save button: the window closes and displays the criterion on the page.
To delete a criterion, go to the query level where you want to delete this criterion.
Click on the Delete icon at the end of the line.
To modify a criterion, go to the query where you want to update this criterion, click on the icon at the end of the line Edit.
A new window will open, and you can edit the properties, unit, function, comparator, and value already entered. Save this change.
To add a criterion, position yourself at the query level where you want to create this criterion, click on the New Criteria button.
A new window will open, choose a criterion (structure, ...) from the list called Property,
Logical operators
It is possible to assemble criteria and parameters using the logical operators AND OR. The technique is the same as for constructing dynamic groups with the creation of a query.
If you wish, choose criteria (filters) and parameters.
To add an operator. Click on the New Operator button.
Choose the operator from the list.
To delete an operator : Click on the Delete icon at the end of the line.
Parameters
A parameter allows the user who launches the report to choose a particular value (the parameter): for example, they will choose for a training tracking table, the training they want as a parameter.
If you wish, choose criteria (filters) and parameters.
To add a parameter, position yourself at the query level where you want to create this parameter.
Click the New Setting button. A new window opens.
Choose a parameter (structure, ...) from the list called Property:
For some values (e.g. time), you can choose the unit chosen at the Unit row level.
For some values (e.g. dates), you can choose the format at the Function row level.
Depending on the parameter, you may then choose an operator (equal to, greater than,) at the Comparator row.
Specify if this parameter is mandatory (in which case the user will have to fill in the parameter before launching the report) by checking the Required option.
Finally, if you want to customise the name of the parameter to be displayed, you can type in the Label field the new name that will be displayed to the user
Click on the Save button: the window closes and displays the setting on the page.
To delete a parameter, position yourself at the query level where you want to delete this parameter, click on the Delete icon at the end of the line.
To modify a parameter, position yourself at the query level where you want to update this parameter, click on the Modify icon at the end of the line.
A new window will open, where you can edit the properties, unit, function, comparator, mandatory, and label already entered.
Save this change.
Once the report query is constructed, you must click the Save button at the top of the Construction page, in order to save the report.
View the result of the query by clicking on the Visualization tab of the report.
