## Viewing Reports To view Parallels RAS reports, select the Reporting category in the RAS Console. The report viewing interface consists of the following elements: The middle pane displays the available reports. See the Predefined reports subsection below for the complete list. The "blue folders" icon (at the top of the list) groups reports by type or displays all of them as a single list. The "refresh" icon refreshes the report list by retrieving it from the database (this can be useful when you enable/disable the reporting functionality or when you add custom reports, which may not appear in the list automatically). When you initially open the Reporting category, the right pane contains just the Information tab, which informs you whether Parallels RAS Reporting is active. The "blue square" icon in front of the Tasks drop-down menu (upper right-hand side of the RAS Console) expands the reporting interface into full screen. The Tasks drop-down menu allows you to perform the following actions: Duplicate (duplicates a report tab), Full screen (on/off), various Close Report options, Delegate Permissions (allows you to grant permissions to view reports to other users). To run a report, double-click it in the middle pane. The report opens in a tab in the right pane: Most reports include controls that you can interact with, such as From/To dates, Sort By, Sort Order, Chart Type, Server Name, and others depending on the report type. When you change a value in any of these controls, click the View Report button to apply the new criteria and re-run the report. The main report area (lower portion where the data is represented as a graph, text, or numbers) includes a menu bar with icons that allow you to change the view magnification, list through report pages (if more than one is included), search for text, save a report to a file, print a report, and export it to data feed. Note: The first time the reports are viewed, you may be requested to add http://<server domain/ IP> as a trusted website. This will appear depending on the Parallels RAS machine’s "Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration".

When viewing this report, select "All applications" or "RAS published applications" depending on your needs. When the second option is selected, the report will not include non-published applications and duplicates. Note that if you have enabled the "custom reports" functionality (Administration > Reporting > Tracking settings > Enable custom reports), you will also see the custom reports group with a single demo report in it. As you add more custom reports, they will all appear in this folder. When the "custom reports" functionality is disabled, this group is not shown in the report list. Custom reports are described in detail in the Parallels RAS Reporting Guide, which can be downloaded from the Parallels website.
