Prerequisites for Running Usage Statistics Reports

In order to successfully run Usage Statistics reports for product– or feature-based reports, you must have organizational structures defined, and your organization’s reporting data must be aggregated. For product-based reports, product-to-feature mapping must be in place.

Ensure that the following tasks are completed before running the reports. You complete these tasks using the FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications user interface.

•

For product-based reports, map features to products, using the functionality available under the Planner tab. (See Investment Planning for information.)

•

For both product– and feature-based reports, define organizational structures using the pages available under the Reporting tab, in the Organizational Structures section.

•

For both product– and feature-based reports, run data aggregation using the aggregation functionality available under the Reporting tab, in the Usage Data Maintenance section.
