Report Tags

The report tag type is used to track the data of a user-defined group of tags to a user-defined output format at regular intervals.

VTS also includes a built-in Reports page that enables the generation of reports, along with a set of report tools that enable you to build your own custom reports page (see Report Tools Library). The difference between the default Reports page and Report tags is that the Reports page enables a one-time generation of a report, while Report tags enable you to configure a report to be generated on a regular basis (daily, weekly, or monthly), or whenever a related tag changes it value from 'false' to 'true'. Detailed information on configuring a report tag can be found in Using Report Tags to Generate Reports ".
