Building Reports

Required system privilege: Add/Edit/View/Delete Reports.

The Builder tab lets you create original reports that are tailored to your organization’s needs. Each report is composed of one or more report components, such as a table or pie chart. You apply a subject area to each report component and can then select measures or attributes associated with that subject area to include in the report component.

The Builder tab lists these reports and their status. Builder report statuses include:

  • Not Published: a saved report that you can continue to update.

  • Published: a complete report that others can view.

  • Published — Update Pending: a report that was published and then revised, but has not been republished with the changes.

  • Invalid: the XML code is incorrect for report created with the advanced editor. It must be corrected before publishing is possible.

The Oracle MICROS Reporting and Analytics Report Designer’s Guide provides details for using the advanced editor.
