About this task
Perform the following steps to create one of the following
reports:
- Actual Production Details Report
- A report based on the information stored either in the current
or in an archived plan. The information contained in these plans is
retrieved from the Symphony files. Actual Production Details Report
can be run on distributed engines (master domain manager, backup domain
manager, domain manager with connector, and fault-tolerant agent with
connector).
- Planned Production Details Report
- A report based on the information stored either in a trial or
in a forecast plan. The information contained in these plans is retrieved
from the HCL Workload Automation database.
A Planned Production Details Report
can be run on distributed engines (master domain manager and backup
domain manager). A real production report extracted from a fault-tolerant
agent might contain different information with respect to a plan extracted
from a master domain manager. For example, the number of jobs and
job streams is the same, but their status can change, because a job
successful on the master can be in hold or ready on the agent. The
update status rate is the same only on the full status agent that
runs on the domain master.
Procedure

the task, but not to modify it. Task and engine sharing can be disabled
by the TWSWEBUIAdministrator in the global settings customizable file.
- In the Report Header panel, choose the name and the format
of the output of the report and click Next to proceed or click Finish to
complete the task creation using all the default values.
- In the Filter Criteria panel, define a filter to select
the jobs that you want to include in the report. All the information
about fields and options is available in the panel help. Click Next to
proceed or click Finish to complete the task creation using
all the default values.
- In the Report Output Content panel, select the job information
that you want to display in the report output. After you make your
selection, click Next to proceed or Finish to complete
the task creation using all the default values.
- In the Create New Task panel:
- Select Run this Task Now and click Finish if
you want to run the report task. If you have not yet specified an
engine connection, you are prompted to do so now.
- Click Cancel to exit without saving your changes.
- Click Finish to save the task, without starting it
immediately.
