4 Reports

The Report Manager provides a small set of predefined reports. Operational reports are the reports you run on aggregated HDR. To run a report, you must first configure collection groups. Refer to the Configure Report Manager to Run Reports chapter for more information.

If you enabled Single Sign On when registering BI Publisher in Report Manager, select Operational Reports in the Reports Manager slider to open BI Publisher in a new tab and sign into BI Publisher with the same account name used to sign into Oracle Communications Session Delivery Manager. If you did not enable Single Sign On, you must log into BI Publisher manually.

Note:

You will not see the Operational Reports section under the Report Manager slider unless you are logged in as a reporting user. See the Apply User Group Privileges for Applications section for more information.
