About Sample Reports

During the SAS IT Resource Management installation, multiple sample reports are stored in the SAS Content Server. These reports provide examples of the different types of reports that SAS IT Resource Management can create. They also enable you to practice using ITRM Report Center before you have generated your own reports.

SAS IT Resource Management provides 30 sample performance reports and 4 sample exception reports. These samples include various plots and charts that demonstrate how your reports might look when you begin working with SAS IT Resource Management. Each sample report also includes a combination of BY variables.

As shown in the following display, the sample reports are stored in the SAS Content Server in the /sasdav/ITRM/SampleReports folder.

Administrators can access this folder from the Administration workspace of ITRM Report Center. To do so, click the Open SCS Viewer Console button and navigate to/default/sasdav/ITRM/SampleReports.

The sample performance and exception reports each include the DomainCategory ITRMDomainIntelligence so that you can identify and work with them in ITRM Report Center. The reports also include additional BY variables that you can use as filters in ITRM Report Center.

To distinguish the performance reports from the exception reports, the sample reports use the Keyword attribute as follows: This enables you to identify and work with the reports in ITRM Report Center.

The following two topics explain how to create separate galleries for sample performance and sample exception reports. If you want a single gallery for all sample reports, follow the instructions here, but do not specify a Keyword.
