Saving a ConflictManager Report Directly to a File
Using the Report Viewer
ConflictManager Reference
You can generate and save a ConflictManager report to a file without opening it in the
report viewer. You might do this if you want to generate a large report overnight. This
involves creating an .INI file that contains the instructions for generating the report and
then using a command line to generate the report.
To create the .INI file
1.
Open the ReportConfig.ini file located in the share point Reports directory.
2.
Read the comments that precede each variable and determine what values you need
to enter to generate your report.
Each line of comments begins with a semicolon.
3.
Enter the values for the appropriate variables.
Some variables apply only to specific reports.
4.
Save the .INI file with a name that clearly identifies it.
To generate the report from a command line
Use the following command line:
"Wise Package Studio installation directory\Workbench\IMReport.exe" /infofile="path to
ReportConfig.ini file"
When you run the command line, the report is saved in the directory you specify in the
.INI file. A report.log is also created in the same directory. If you generate multiple
reports, save them in different directories to prevent the report.log from being
overwritten.
After you generate a report, it is displayed in a report viewer window.
To save a report, click Save As in the lower right of the report viewer window. You
can save a report in HTML, XML, or CSV format. When you save a report as HTML,
an HTML file is created for each page of the report, and each file has the same name
with its page number appended.
To print a report, click Print in the lower right of the report viewer window.
The date and time when the report was generated appears in the lower left corner of
the report.
To perform a text search, click on the report and press Ctrl+F.
The first column in each table displays one or more letters that represent the
conflict level. To access an explanation of the conflict levels, click the conflict letter.
This displays a Conflict Levels legend in the lower right of the report.
If there are no conflicts, the report viewer opens and No Conflicts appears in the
middle of the report.
At the top of the report, you can see the number of Packages in the Software
Manager database and the number of Packages on which conflicts were run.
