Custom Components in Report Designer


When you create an Advanced Browser report in the ExtremeAnalytics Browser, you can save it to the Report Designer to use as a custom component. The custom component uses the target, statistic, start time, and search criteria you defined in the Advanced Browser report.

Custom components are listed in the My Components section in the left-panel of the Report Designer. They are available for selection from the Component drop-down list in the Applications Browser section when you customize a system report or create a new report.

Create a New Component

You can create new components from the Reports > Custom Reports tab.

The left-panel options allow you to choose the category and duration of the data captured in the component. You can also choose the target for which the data will be displayed, and which statistical data will be displayed.
