Available Reports
Displays a predefined list of reports that you can select.
When you select a report, a description is displayed on the right side of the dialog box.
Selection Criteria
Specify the selection criteria.
For example, if you want to view the inventory information of all inventoried servers, select Server as the scope selection criteria. The report will display the inventory information of all inventoried servers within the configured Inventory database.
Based on the type of report you want, you can filter the information. For example, to view all inventoried machines that have the Windows* 2000 operating system, you would select Operating System Listing, specify the selection criteria scope as Both, and the operating system type as Windows 2000.
The following table lists the selection criteria that are applicable to all the reports except for the User Defined report. The selection criteria for User Defined reports are based on the options that the user specifies in the consoleone\consoleone_version\bin\userreports.ini file.
