Including properties in ad hoc reports
You specify that object properties be transferred from the BMC Server Automation database to the reports data warehouse by using the Used in reports flag in the BMC Server Automation property dictionary.
Each property definition in the dictionary includes the Used in reports flag. The extract, transform, and load (ETL) process uses this setting to determine which properties to transfer to the reports data warehouse.
By default, all built-in properties have the Used in reports flag set. When you add a property to the dictionary, the Used in reports flag is off by default. You can turn on the flag to include the new property in reports. The next time the ETL process synchronizes the model, it includes any new properties with the flag turned on.
If you want to remove a property from reports, you can turn the flag off.
For information about the property dictionary, see Managing properties using the Property Dictionary in the BMC Server Automation documentation.
