The Reports feature in phpCollab can be useful in preparing for status meetings and for compiling new task lists. To put together a report, click on the "Reports" item in the main navigation, located at the top of every page on the team site. The "Create Report" Page appears with the following fields (all fields default to the "Select All" value):
Clients - list of Client Organizations in system
Projects - list of projects in the system
Assigned To - list of all team and client users (including "Unassigned")
Due Date - projected date complete; choose either All Dates or enter date range in Between Dates fields
Complete Date - actual date complete; choose either All Dates or enter date range in Between Dates fields
Status - Client Completed, Completed, Not Started, Open, Suspended
Priority - None, Very low, Low, Medium, High, Very high
Note: the user creating the report may only choose values associated with the projects to which he/she is assigned.
Click the "Create" button and the "Report Results" Page will load with the results produced from the parameters you selected in the previous step. You may edit the report by clicking the Edit button. To save the report, type the desired report and the report parameters will be saved. The report will then be accessible from either the My Reports section in the home page or the Reports item in the main navigation. You may also edit or delete the report from there.
Note: saving the report saves the parameters and not the results - therefore if your updates of a project or client impact the report, the results will change the next time you view the report.
