In IT Advisor, you can select a variety of filter options for the standard built-in reports. This allows you to limit the available data to be included in the report, e.g. only data for a specific date range, or room.
You can redesign and customize the reports, including the filter parameters of the available data, and the available data itself, in a separate report design application, IT Advisor: Insight.
Note: You must have a valid IT Advisor: Insight license for the application to be available for download.
