CM4D Report Record is a database record that contains a history of Reports that have been generated by CM4D Scheduler. This record saves the name and location of a Report in the file system, as well as user-provided information about the intent and content of the report.
Information provided within the database record includes the following:
Filename of the Report
Location of the Report file (folder on the network)
Filename of the thumbnail image (PNG or GIF), if it exists
Date/time that the Report was generated
User-defined filter data (name/value pairs) for the purpose of searching and identifying Reports
Depository definition for the purpose of organizing and segregating Reports
The Report Record mechanism can be accessed by developing your own application (likely a web application) that would access the Report Record data via the CM4D Report Record API.
