Installing and Configuring Advanced Reporting

Scenario

You want to configure the Advanced Reporting feature and access the reports based on Advanced Reporting using a Installed/Windows App Client on a remote computer.

To install Advanced Reporting using Post-Installation, see Post-Installation Steps for Advanced Reporting.
For background information, see the reference section.

Prerequisites

• You have installed the Server with an extension that provides advanced reports, such as, Energy and Power Reporting Templates or Advanced Reports for Pharma etc. This will install the Advanced Reporting extension with the prerequisite Advanced Reporting BIRT Extension.
  NOTE: To install the latest version of prerequisite Advanced Reporting BIRT extension, verify that the install check box is by default selected in the prerequisite version selection window.
• You have added the extensions which provide advanced reports, such as, Energy and Power Reporting Templates or Advanced Reports for Pharma etc. to the Server project. This will add the extensions Advanced Reporting, Application Host Base, Web Services to the server project (see Add an Installed Extension to a Project in Server Projects Configuration Procedures.)
• You have created the Advanced Reporting web application in SMC (see Create a Website in Setting up the Windows App Client).
• Ensure that the Default Web Client does not belong to any management station security group. However, if it does, ensure that this group does not restrict access rights, otherwise, you are not able to view the reports. For more information, see No Access to View Reports.
• You are aware of the system ID of your project.
