Viewing a Custom Report

Note: If you have already been upgraded to Technology Intelligence Platform, information in this section is applicable to you. With Technology Intelligence Platform, out-of-the-box IT Visibility dashboards are being replaced with new, enhanced IT Visibility Technology Intelligence Platform reports.

Important:The Manage custom reports role is generally required to view custom reports. Users without this role do not have access to custom reports by default; however, they can be granted access to specific reports through the custom report sharing process. For more details, see Sharing a Custom Report. For complete descriptions of each role available in Flexera One, see Flexera One Roles.

You can view your own custom reports that appear in the Custom Reports tab.

To view a custom report:

1. Go to the Dashboards page from one of the following menus:
Dashboards > Technology Intelligence Reports > Custom Reports
IT Visibility > Technology Intelligence Reports > Custom Reports

By default, reports are grouped by type, such as Hardware, Software, and Vulnerabilities. To disable grouping, click the Close button on the Report Type box. To enable grouping again, drag the Report Type column header into the Group by (Drag here) area.

2. Click the expand icon next to the group type to view the list of reports.
3. Click the name of the report you want to view.

The selected report opens.
