I want to be able to see the Managed Reporting ID and not the User ID to put into a variable. We are interested in seeing the use of our manage reporting environment. Can someone help me with this?

You can make the managed reporting userid available as a variable by:
1. Go to the web focus client admin console and log on.
2. Click "Configuration" then "Custom Settings"
3. Enter the following after the last line.

<ifdef>IBIMR_user
<set> IBIMR_user(pass)
<endif>
  


This will create an ampher variable called &IBIMR_user that will be available to your webfocus requests.

You have come through again! This is how we used this information to generate a report each time someone runs a MRE from our dasbhoard environment.

DEFINE FILE SMARTDATE
DATE/YYMD = BACK_DAYS;
USERID/A20 = '&IBIMR_user';
DASHBRD/A40 = 'Extracting Results';
TIMESTAMP/HYYMDm = HGETC(10, 'HYYMDm');
END
TABLE FILE SMARTDATE
PRINT
DATE
USERID
DASHBRD
TIMESTAMP
END
