Reporting Overview
There are several types of reports available in Landmark. These reports are available after your initial installation and configuration steps are complete, and do not require any additional setup.
- Embedded Analytics include cube views, charts, and graphs that are created using cubes
that are embedded in the application. Users can modify the data included in these cubes if
they have the required security access. Note that the data in cubes is not real time data.
Rather, the cube must be refreshed to update data. Administrators can specify how often data
is refreshed automatically, and can refresh data on demand. Analytics widgets can be added
to your custom landing pages by using Infor Landing Page Designer.
See the Landing Page Designer User Guide guide.
- List views are transaction reports. Any list in an application can be exported as a report, for example, to a PDF file or Excel spreadsheet. Lists can be configured and filtered as needed, and saved in the modified format.
- Standard reports are built with Java and are created around specific financial batch programs. Examples of standard reports include Inventory Availability Report, Income Statement, Financial Structure Analysis. Standard reports are available in PDF but can also be exported to CSV or Excel spreadsheet. Standard reports can be scheduled to run at a specific time and frequency through the Job Console.
- Custom reports can be created using a number of tools, such as Infor Spreadsheet Designer, or Analytics Self-Service. Users can use these tools to create a customized report if lists or standard reports do not meet their needs.
Security and reporting
Reporting in Infor Landmark is role-based. Different roles have access to different types of reports. Access to reports is controlled by the security classes that are assigned to security roles. If the default security class configuration does not meet your reporting needs, new security roles and classes can be created.
See the Infor Landmark Technology User Setup and Security guide.
