Example Report: Query basic device information and export to Excel
In this example a report is created that will query basic information about all of the devices in the Device Tree. In
order to avoid unnecessarily re-querying devices too often, a report that only queries devices if the information
about them is older than two days. This will keep the information in the database up to date.
Once the report has completed, the results are exported to Excel so the data can be used and manipulated exter-
nally.
1. Create a new Report by clicking the New Report toolbar button, or selecting New Report... from the
Reports menu.
2. Enter a Name and Description for the report to indicate the purpose of the report.
3. Since the report will actually query devices, select Real-time Report as the Report Type. Select Query
only if local device information is older than and select 2 days in order to avoid unnecessarily re-
querying devices and also keep the database up to date.
4. On the Devices tab, select the devices to be included in the report.
!Note: Windows computers and daisy-chained large-screen displays are shown in the device tree in the Devices tab without
any child devices (attached displays for Windows computers, and individual daisy-chained large-screen displays for daisy-
chain hosts). These child devices will be determined when the Report operation is actually run, and automatically added to
the report and the device tree.
5. On the Query Items tab, select the desired items to query and include in the report.
