Creating User Reports
You can create your own Carbon Emissions Analysis user reports based on any of the included default reports.
You can create a user report by changing one of the predefined Carbon Emissions Analysis Default Reports, and then save the custom settings as a new user report. The new reports can have their own set of filters, grouping dimension, date range, calculation method, and carbon emissions factor settings. You can also create new user reports based on user reports you have already created.
You can later access the report after leaving the Console and returning to Carbon Emissions Analysis, without needing to redo your preferred date range, filters, or grouping dimension. After a report has been saved, it can be accessed on the User Reports page. A maximum of 50 reports can be saved.
New user reports can be created on the Carbon Emissions Analysis page, User Reports page, or any of the Default Reports detail pages. The following example uses the Carbon Emissions Analysis page as the starting context.
The new saved report is now available for future selection from the User Reports page.
