Hi,

There is a requirement that needs to count the number.of.users/number.of times hitting the IBI Reports .We are using approx 90 reports including dashboard & report assitant reports.

Is there any webfocus tables or Log file is available to find out this details.

Thanks,
Veda

I think you can get some information using Resource Analyzer, but I suppose there's a license fee. At one site, I created a usage table with username, procedure name, time etc. Then I wrote a procedure which updated a the usage table and placed a -INCLUDE prcedurename at somewhere at the end in default.wfs (I think, it was a long time ago).

Create a fex that will insert records into a SQL table, i.e. use &IWAUSER to pass username. Pass a reportname and date timestamp.

include this fex at the top of every report to give you the report usage log you're looking for.

I would strongly advise you not to -INCLUDE a focexec in every report, when you can put it in one single place, which all procedures will pass when it's executed.

I do something like this:

'Logging' fex in one place:

1) Inserts a SQL Server/DB2/Oracle table row (oprid, report name, run date, start date/time, end date/time) upon executing the report. End date/time will be empty at this point. (Add whatever fields that might benefit your area (business name, run cycle, etc.))

2) Calls (-INCLUDE) the report fex (passed by variable.)

3) Upon conclusion, update same row's end date/time column.

This gets you not only user hits but execution time as well.

This question of logging report runs has been asked many times before, and the same answers come out each time.

A search of the forum would have found this.

I got the IBI report details information such as date,time,user,counts from ibicm_aplog_whatran table but report names are not displaying fully as expected due to names are taking from the log file not from the IBI dashboard.working on that.if its not giving good progress i can go by 'Logging' fex in one place method.

Thanks for all your suggestions and help.

Thanks,
Veda
