Runs an existing ExtraView report or obtains a list of reports to which the current user has access.<\/p>\n

SYNOPSIS<\/h3>\n

evreport [-c|-t] [-n] [-r] [-s skipcount] [-l pagelength]<\/p>\n

evreport [-r] [-l page_length] [-s record_start] [-c|-t] [“report title”]<\/p>\n

DESCRIPTION<\/h3>\n

This command allows the user to run an existing Report or to obtain a list of all the reports that the current user can run.<\/p>\n

To obtain the list of reports that can be run, the user simply enters the command evreport, without any parameters. The command will return a list of the reports, sorted by the user\u2019s personal reports, then the shared reports that can be run. After the list of reports, the user is prompted for the report number that they want to run. Entering the report number executes that report.<\/p>\n

The parameters to the command are explained as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
-c<\/td>\nThe report will be produced in a columnar format. This option has no effect on summary reports. This option cannot be used with the -t<\/span> option.Column widths default to 15 characters. These defaults can be modified with the existence of a file named report.txt, either in $HOME\/.evreport<\/span> (evreport.txt<\/span> on Windows) or publicly in evcli\/report.txt<\/span>. This file has the following format:<\/p>\n

Status = -10
\nTitle = 20.18
\nAssigned To = 12
\nEOL = ':'<\/code><\/p>\n

Negative numbers cause left justification.<\/p>\n

The “.18” suffix in the above example indicates that the field has a maximum length of 18 characters.<\/p>\n

If it is longer than 18 characters, the field contents will be truncated.<\/p>\n

Fields with embedded newlines will have their newlines converted to a single blank space. An alternate replacement string may be specified by defining EOL in the report.txt file.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

-t<\/td>\nThe report will be produced in tabular format. This is similar to columnar format, except that fields do not have a fixed width, and a tab character is used as a separator between fields. This option cannot be used with -c<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
-n<\/td>\nSuppresses the report header and the record total at the end of the report<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
-r<\/td>\nOutput data in XML format<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
-l pagelength<\/td>\nCauses the output to paginate pagelength records at a time. The default for pagelength is 10<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
-s skipcount<\/td>\nCauses the output to skip over \u2018skipcount-1\u2019 issues, and begin the report starting with record number skipcount<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
