Creating Query (Application) and Multiapplication reports

The Report Builder enables you to define new queries and create reports for both single application and multiple applications. After defining a new query, you can save the defined query as a new report.
To create a report for a single application or multiple applications:
1. In the Business Process Portal, select the Management module and then click Reports > My Reports.
The Report List page appears.
2. At the top of the page, select the report type as Query Report or Multiapplication Report from the drop-down list and then click Add Report.
3. In the Select Application dialog box, select the application for which you want to define a new query.
If you have selected the report type as Query Report, the Select Application dialog box allows you to select only one application. If you have selected the report type as Multiapplication Report, the Select Application dialog box allows you to select one or more applications.
4. Click OK.
The Add Report page appears.
5. In the Report Name field, provide a name for the new report.
Note: Business Process Server cannot display a report that includes the forward slash (/) in its name. Therefore, it is recommended that it should not be used in the report name.
6. In the Description field, provide a description for the report.
7. Select Task Report as the Report Type if you want to view all the task attributes (work items) related to the application that have been assigned to the user.
8. In the Application Attributes section, select the attributes and/or tasks you want to include in the query definition.
The Name attribute is mandatory and is always selected.
9. In the Filters section, define filters for attributes and/or tasks.
For information on how to define filters, see Defining filters and parameters
