Running EDM Reports

Reports are run from the Reports page of the EDM and from various Search Result pages. You need the appropriate security permissions to run the production, activity, and search reports from the EDM. Production and activity reports require that a time period be defined in the search criteria. Both types of report are run from the Reports page on the EDM.

To Run Reports From the EDM

1. Log in to the EDM, and then click the Reports tab.

   The Reports Search page appears (see Figure 52).

About Report Search Fields on the EDM

The fields on the Report Search page let you specify a date range for each report. For Potential Duplicate reports, you can also specify the status of the potential duplicates returned by the search. For the Weekly Activity Report, you only need to enter one date; the report will automatically display information for the calendar week containing that date.
