Report Data

Add data to a report so that you can populate charts with the report data. For the out of the box reports, you use the report update jobs associated to the reports to collect and add report data. If you use custom reports, you must manually add the data entries in the custom reports.

The following table describes the parameters you must configure for each data entry in a report:

Parameter	Description
DIMENSION_NAME_1	The name of a dimension of data in the report. For example, a dimension might be User Name, Review task type, or business entity type.
DIMENSION_NAME_2	Optional. The name of a dimension of data in the report. For example, a dimension might be User Name, Review task type, or business entity type.
TIMEPERIOD_NAME	Optional. Name of the period of time to which the data applies. For example, you might specify Month .
METRIC_VALUE	Number that represents the dimensions of data. For example, you might have a report that collects information about closed tasks by user. One dimension of the report is the user John Smith, and another dimension is the Review task type. The metric value might be 5 . This means that John Smith closed five tasks of the Review task type.
DRILLDOWN_RPT_ID	ID of a drilldown report. If the value is null , then there is no drilldown report configured.

The following example shows three data entries in a report:

[
  {
    "DIMENSION_VALUE_1": "High",
    "DIMENSION_VALUE_2": "AVOSBeMerge",
    "TIMEPERIOD_VALUE": "null",
    "METRIC_VALUE": "3",
    "DRILLDOWN_RPT_ID": "null"
 },
  {
    "DIMENSION_VALUE_1": "High",
    "DIMENSION_VALUE_2": "AVOSBeReviewNoApprove",
    "TIMEPERIOD_VALUE": "null",
    "METRIC_VALUE": "0",
    "DRILLDOWN_RPT_ID": "null"
 },
 {
    "DIMENSION_VALUE_1": "High",
    "DIMENSION_VALUE_2": "AVOSBeUpdate",
    "TIMEPERIOD_VALUE": "null",
    "METRIC_VALUE": "0",
    "DRILLDOWN_RPT_ID": "null"
 }
