How to Customize the Reporting Page of an Object
In an object property pages, its Reporting page gives access to the reports of the products accessible by the profile. These reports are sorted in topic folders.
Example: in the Reporting page of the "Accounts" application, from the Repository consistency folder you can launch three reports ("Content Consistency (Scenario)", Content Consistency (Structure), and "Exchange Consistency (Structure Scenario)").
This Reporting page configuration is performed through the Report Display Context corresponding to a duo "MetaClass - Profile".
E.g.: Application MetaClass - EA Functional Administrator Profile.
In the Reporting page of an object, you can:
• add folders
• add reports to a folder
• organize the reports of a folder
To configure the Reporting page you can:
• create a Report Display Context for the corresponding MetaClass and define for which profile(s)
• configure the Report Display Context:
• create folders to sort the Report Templates
• add Report Templates to a folder
• organize the Report Templates of a folder
• add a MetaTest to a Report Template
Creating a Report Display Context

To create a Report Display Context:
1. In the navigation menus, click Report Definitions > Report Templates > Report Display Contexts.
2. Click New.
3. Configure the Report Display Context:

E.g.: under EA Contibutor and EA Functional Administrator profiles.
