Overview
- TrackAbout Support can create customized reports for you.
- These reports can be either emailed to you on a schedule or they can appear in the Custom Reports section of your site.
- See the information below about these customized reports...
Getting the Data
There are two different ways that you can get these reports
Emailed on a schedule
- In this case we'll setup a schedule for when the report is emailed.
- For example: The 2nd of every month or every sunday
- The emails are sent between 4-5am US Eastern time. (9-10 am UTC aka Greenwich Mean Time)
- The report will be an attachment to the email. This will usually be in Microsoft Excel format unless you need something different.
- The report can be sent to as many email addresses as you would like.
Added to the Custom Reports section of your site
- This will appear on the Custom Reports section of your site.
- Any user with the "view custom reports" permission will be able to see all custom reports
- Note that TrackAbout plans to give you more control with permissions for individual reports in the future.
Input
- Today there is not a way for you to enter any input parameters into these reports.
- So for instance you cannot enter a start date and end date for a report.
- However a report can be built with default parameters along the lines of 'from the first day of last month to the last day of last month'.
- Note that TrackAbout plans to give you a way to add input parameters in the future
Output
The output can be in one of these formats
- Excel: This is a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet file. It is a 'real' spreadsheet file where you can sum the rows and do whatever else you can normally do in Excel.
- PDF: Adobe PDF format
- CSV: Comma Separated value format. This is normally used if you want to import the data into some other system.
- XML: This is normally only used if you want to import the data into some other system.
Pricing
Report Creation
The standard price for setting up reports is a one time fee of US$250.
Some reports maybe be too large and complicated for this fee and may require a special quote.
We'll let you know if that is the case.
Report Changes
Changes to existing custom reports will be charged at $100 per hour.
