Creating a simple Audit list report using an out-of-the-box template

If you want your custom list report to have the same look and feel as the built-in reports that are included with the product, use the BMC-Corporate-List_Portrait template.

The following example demonstrates how to create an Audit report that lists the total differences for target servers for Audit Job runs on different objects.

To create a simple Audit list report

1. Launch Report Studio from the BMC Decision Support for Server Automation portal.
2. Select a package (for example, BladeLogic) from the list of available packages.
3. In the Welcome window, click Create a new report or template.
4. Select the BMC-Corporate-List_Portrait report type and click OK.
5. In the Report Studio window, ignore the error and click OK.
6. In the report title and body, delete the The Component is not loaded message.
7. If the Insertable Objects pane does not display the domain folders, right-click in the pane and select Refresh.
   
8. In the Insertable Objects pane, open the Audit folder, and drag the following objects to the right pane:
   • Audit Target Component/Target Server Name

   • Audit Summary/Object Type
   • Audit Summary/Total Differences
9. In the right pane, select the Target Server Name column and click Group / Ungroup on the toolbar.
10. Change the title of the report as required.
