Gen1 and Gen2 Categories

This section contains Web Reports Gen1 Categories and the equivalent Web Reports Gen2 categories. It is important to note the following:

  • While converting the reports, DO NOT take the categories directly from Web Reports Gen1 and convert to equivalent categories in Web Reports Gen2 from the following table.
  • The following table is provided as a reference to illustrate that Web Report Gen1 categories were more abstracted and encapsulated at a higher level, whereas Web Report Gen2 categories are not.
  • Look at the mapping below and identify the Web Report Gen1 categories from the left and identify the Web Report Gen2 categories from the right (unique set) and then identify the join condition required to join them appropriately as per the report requirements. Also choose the bare minimum number of categories that are required for the report.
  • In some cases, you may need to create multiple aliases of the same table in order to join with foreign keys for different logical entities.

For example: Allocation category has from_inventory_id and to_inventory_id as foreign keys but are pointing to the inventory table but they two represent two different logical entities i.e. ( from Inventory - is inbound inventory) and ( to inventory - is outbound inventory).

  • In many cases, all the joins may not be required if you are not using data from the joined tables, so be aware of this, as this could provide better performance.
  • Important: Web Reports Gen2 does create some of the obvious joins automatically. But you must go check the joins created and see if there are any other additional joins to be added or any redundant joins to be removed. Also avoid all duplicate joins.
  • Also, anytime there is a change in a category or any options in a category (for example, one suppresses duplicates using the check box) then Web Reports will try to regenerate the joins again. It may seem frustrating, but this behavior is expected as some settings have changed and the application is recreating joins to suit those settings. It is important to double check again to see if joins have adjusted again correctly. To avoid regeneration of joins, it is good practice to decide upfront what categories and columns are required to minimize this.
