When the administration console is launched for the first time, administrators are presented with a graphical report showing the usage statistics.  These reports can also be accessed in the console at any time by navigating to Administrator->Device Usage Reports

To gather data for reports, the client keeps track of usage and submits to the server.  When the device submits data is controlled by system key report.reset.day where administrators select the day that data should be submitted on.  Once a device has activated, it will begin tracking usage but will not submit any results until the report.reset.day

The latest client is required to track usage, older clients do not have the facility to collect data and submit to the server

The reports available are split into the following tabs:

  • Row data: Table providing summary information for total number of records created, updated and deleted by all users selected, week-by-week.  Also tracks usage of the application in minutes.
  • Selected Users: Shows a summary of users information including pin, activation address, language, cad version and device.  It lists all users that data is currently being displayed for.
  • Records chart:  Bar chart showing summary information for number of records created, updated and deleted by all users selected, week-by-week
  • Usage chart:  Bar chart showing summary information for number of minutes that the application was actively used by all users selected, week-by-week.
