Can someone please send me instructions on how to export my MRE user list. I need a list of user id's in order to do an audit. Thanks!

Susanne,
I'm on 7.6.2 but I suppose that user list must be in
[IBI_installation_path]\WebFOCUS71\basedir\user.htm

The structure of file is simple.

Hope this helps,
Alex

Getting what you want is hard because the information isn't stored in neat tables, but hidden away inside the htm files that define the 'fake' tree structure you see inside MRE Domains.

Fortunately, IBI has created a "Managed Reporting Extract Utility" that 'mines' these files of htm text and outputs *.txt files containing User, Role, Group, Domain, and Domain Content data. While the files are *.txt, their content resembles *.csv, so they could be opened with a text processor or into EXCEL.

These utilities are documented in Chapter 10 of the "WebFOCUS Managed Reporting Administrator's Manual". My copy is for v7r1.3, but the book for later versions likely contains the same stuff.

N.Selph is right, use the MREXTRACT utility to generate the output files.

Then use IBIMRUSR.MAS file to table off of the flat file.

There are other Master files out there as well. The MR Admin Guide contains a list of the masters as well as sample code that you can use.
