Use Reports

Stages contains a report engine that provides access to all process and project data managed in Stages.

Typical reports are:

• Reports that analyze the modeled process
• Reports that analyze the content of projects
• Administrative reports that analyze the usage of Stages

Stages already provides a set of Standard Reports that can be downloaded for free.

All available reports can be found at Reports.

Reports are global. Besides Administrative reports, reports usually analyze the content of the user's current workspace or the sub-workspaces.

From the report page, click Run to run the report. If the report has Parameters, these have to be set before the report can be executed.

After setting the parameters and output format, the report can be executed by clicking on “Run” button.

Report results can be in HTML, XLSX, and PDF formats.

HTML is directly rendered on the result page; other file formats you can download by clicking the “Download” button. From the results page, you can also use the 3-dot context menu to export to a different format.

As of Stages 7.11, the server saves the execution results from your personal report runs, displaying the history of up to 10 runs per report and process version. Each user sees only their own history.

From the list, you can view the results again, refresh the results or run the report again, or export to another format.

Note: if the report script is updated, the saved results are deleted as they no longer match the report.

The Stages server limits the number of reports running in parallel. If that limit is reached, additional report requests will be queued until previous reports complete and then executed in the background. If your report is pending execution, your execution history will show the status as Scheduled. After your report runs, you can view the results from your execution history.
