Simple Scheduled or Ad-hoc SCADA Reporting
Every VTScada software application includes two SCADA reporting components that allow users to create ad-hoc or recurring reports in seconds.
The VTScada Report Page
This standard SCADA reporting utility allows users to easily generate their own ad-hoc SCADA reports by selecting one or more I/O tags, a time range, and an output format.
Pre-defined SCADA Reports
The Report Page provides a variety of pre-defined report types designed to analyze the performance of the equipment comprising your physical system. Most can be used across a wide variety of industries while others are intended specifically for use in water and wastewater. Any number of additional custom reports can be defined and saved as needed.

The VTScada Report Tag
Developers can configure VTScada Report Tags to run a particular report on schedule, automatically. Report Tags are time-zone aware and can be configured to run daily, weekly, monthly, manually, or when triggered by an event.
Report Tag Widgets
Developers can add a variety of Report Tag Widgets to their display pages to allows operators to adjust the report setup, without requiring tag configuration privileges. Additionally, the Report Button Widget can be set to re-run the last scheduled report on demand.
SCADA Reporting Output Formats
All reports can be output to the screen, a printer or to any of a number of file formats including CSV, spreadsheet, and database. Reports that are being saved to a file can also be emailed automatically if the VTScada workstation has access to an email server.
