Bulk Submit Reports
The NetBatch-Plus utility server processes requests for reports from the Reports
screen. (The primary function of the utility server is to give users access from within the
NetBatch-Plus application to processes listed on the Utility Menu screen.) For each
report request, the utility server creates these secondary processes:
•
The report server
•
The Enform query compiler/report writer. This process creates, in turn, the Enform
query processor.
The query compiler/report writer compiles the query (if necessary) from your query
specifications and sends the compiled query to the query processor. The query
processor retrieves the data from the report server and returns that data to the query
compiler/report writer, which formats it and produces the report.
The report server is an Enform server that retrieves records from the NetBatch-Plus
database and passes them, one at a time, to the query processor. The server selects
only:
•
Records matching the report selection parameters specified on the Reports screen.
For example, if you specify a date range for the Calendar by Date report, the report
server selects only dates falling within that range.
•
Records secured for read access by:
°
The Guardian owner of the report (specified on the Reports screen)
°
Any other Guardian user whose ID was validated during the current
NetBatch-Plus session
The report server selects not only records the report owner can read but also
records that can be read by other Guardian users whose IDs were validated during
the current session. For more information on access to records, see Record
Access on page B-1.
Bulk Submit Reports
Bulk submit reports list information about jobs selected in bulk submit test and
production runs. The bulk submit program produces the reports automatically.
There are two bulk submit reports:
•
Bulk Submit Predictions
•
Bulk Submit Submissions
The bulk submit program produces the Bulk Submit Predictions report for every test
bulk submit run and the Bulk Submit Submissions report for every production run. The
program produces both reports for daily production runs.
