Reports
When objects are executed, your system generates output files and reports that you open from the user interface. Combined with the Execution Data, these reports provide comprehensive information about the status and the history of your executions. This information tracks all processes and allows you to control and monitor tasks, ensuring full auditing capability.
Reports are kept in the system until they are explicitly removed by a reorganization run. During a reorganization run, the Execution Data can be kept. Keeping the execution data is an advantage, because reports can consume a large amount of hard drive space. Removing the reports from your database does not mean loss of important historical data.

This page includes the following:
You access the reports as follows:
-
Right-click an object in the Process Assembly perspective and select Monitoring > Last Report
The most recent report that is created for the object opens up.
-
When defining an executable object in the Process Assembly perspective, click the Last Report button in the object toolbar after you have executed it
-
Right-click a task in the Process Monitoring perspective and select Open Report
The report of that particular execution opens up. Its runID is displayed in the title bar to help you identify it.
-
In any of the Executions lists, right-click an entry and select Open Report
-
After executing a job (JOBS) a success message is displayed at the top of the screen that provides a link to the report
If there are long reports or heavy traffic, loading the report can take some time. In this case, the Report of page is displayed but the toolbar buttons are disabled.
The following types of reports are available:
-
ACT Activation
Executable objects go through four stages during execution. The first stage is Activation. The Activation report logs all steps that the object goes through during this phase. For example, this report contains the texts written by :PRINT statements or the confirmation and runID that results from the execution of an object through :ACTIVATE_UC_OBJECT functions.
-
CLNT Client
Useful mostly for revision purposes, this report logs what happens at Client-level. For example, if a Client has been started or stopped, when, and by whom.
-
LOG Runtime
This report logs all the modifications that occur at runtime, that is, during the execution of an object. For example, in case of a cancellation, when and by whom.
