The Reports feature is available in the Portal Management section of Ringtail. This feature allows system administrators and portal administrators to view the following aggregate data:
●Usage Summary: View aggregate data for all cases or for a specific case.
●Hosted Details: View information about hosted file sizes for all of the cases that you administer or for specific cases.
●Users: View information about the users for all of the cases that you administer or for a specific case.
You can also download reports. For more information, see Download a Portal Management Report.
Note: Case administrators who are portal users can view data and download reports for the cases that they administer.
To access the Reports feature, on the Portal Home page, under Portal Management, click Reports.
On the Usage Summary and Hosted Details pages, the metrics update periodically, and not in real time, if you scheduled an indexing and enrichment job or a gather case metrics job. On the Users page, some of the numbers update in real time, but others require that you run one of these job types.
If no jobs are scheduled, we recommend that you schedule a gather case metrics job on a weekly or monthly basis. For information about how to schedule a gather case metrics job, see Add a scheduled job.
If you need to gather and update case metrics more frequently, you can schedule an indexing and enrichment job, which also includes updates to case metrics.
Note: An indexing and enrichment job updates case metrics only for folders that correspond to Ringtail levels. To scan all folders in the file system, run a gather case metrics job. If you want to update case metrics using a previously scheduled indexing and enrichment job, you must delete the existing job, and then create a new job that includes the Update case metrics option.
You can view aggregate data for all of the cases that you administer or for specific cases in the Usage Summary report. You can display the total usage summary for a specific date or for a date range. If you change the dates, click Apply to update the table. An example of the Usage Summary report is shown in the following figure.
You can filter columns, and hide and display columns in this table. For more information, see Filter data in the Portal Management Reports.
The following columns are available in the Usage Summary report. You can hover over most of the column headings to view a description.
