caadvreports - Reports

The caadvreports command provides various options for generating advanced reports. The caadvreports command can accept and parse a variety of report parameters; however, not all parameters are required for all the reports. Based on the type of report that is being generated, only the parameters required and supported by that specified report will be used. Parameters that are not needed will be silently ignored.

To run any advanced report, you must specify at least the report type and the path of the file where the generated report will be saved. If one of the required parameters for a particular report is not specified, the utility will fail and the reason for failure will be entered in the log file.

The following report types, along with the corresponding supported filter parameters can be generated using the caadvreports command:
