Customized reporting via the integrated Report Manager

How do you create customized reports with the integrated Report Manager?

Standard reports are often not sufficient to answer specific questions. The required information has to be laboriously collected from various sources or prepared manually.
With the integrated Report Manager, i-doit offers a flexible way of creating individual reports. Relevant information can be specifically selected, combined and evaluated - precisely tailored to your requirements.

Advantages:

  • Flexible creation of individual reports without additional tools
  • Combination of a wide variety of data from the CMDB
  • Quick answers to specific questions
  • Reusable report templates for regular evaluations

Verifiable audit reports as PDF

How do you create verifiable audit reports in PDF format?

Audit reviews require structured, comprehensible reports. If information is compiled manually, inconsistencies and additional work arise.
i-doit generates audit-ready PDF reports that clearly summarize and structure relevant information. The data originates from the current CMDB status and is structured in a comprehensible manner at all times.

Advantages:

  • Standardized, auditable PDF reports
  • Clear and comprehensible
  • presentation of all audited data
  • Reduced effort for internal and external audits
  • Reports directly from current CMDB data
  • Use for different target groups (audit, management, operations)

Flexible filter options for report generation

How do you use flexible filter options for precise reports?

Standard reports often show too much data or not the right data. Without targeted filters, there is no focus on relevant information. i-doit offers extensive filter options for creating reports. You define evaluations according to location, person responsible, status, cost center or any other criteria - resulting in precise and targeted reports instead of overloaded lists

Advantages:

  • Precise evaluations instead of general overviews
  • Reports can be configured specifically as required
  • Faster analysis of relevant data
  • Filter logic for complex selection criteria (AND/OR)
  • Less unnecessary information in reports

Automatic export as PDF or CSV documents

How do you automate the export of reports?

If reports have to be exported and processed manually, this creates additional work and increases the risk of errors.
i-doit enables the automatic export of reports as PDF or CSV files. This means that results can be forwarded, archived or transferred to other systems without any manual intermediate steps - reliably and repeatably.

Advantages:

  • Automatic export without manual effort
  • Standardized, repeatable export processes
  • Easy transfer to auditors, management or specialist departments
  • CSV data for external analyses or import into third-party systems
  • Archiving of auditable reports

Analysis and improvement of data quality

How do you analyze and improve data quality in the long term?

A CMDB is only as valuable as the quality of its data. Incomplete or inconsistent information limits the usefulness of reports and audits.
i-doit analyzes data quality in a structured and object-related manner. Missing information, incomplete categories or inconsistencies are displayed transparently so that targeted maintenance requirements can be identified.

Advantages:

  • Transparent assessment of data quality per property type
  • Targeted identification of gaps and missing information
  • Measurable progress in data maintenance
  • Reliable database for audits, reports and decisions
  • Sustainable improvement of CMDB data quality
