Using Starter Reports

You can use preconfigured Starter Reports to get started with Paginated Reports. Starter Reports can be used as-is or customized to suit your needs.

Starter Reports are available to users with access to the Viewpoint Starter Reports tag. By default, the tag is only accessible to Administrators. To give other users access to Starter Reports, Administrators can modify the Viewpoint Starter Reports tag or assign other tags to the Starter Reports.

For an overview of all available Starter Reports, see Overview of Starter Reports.

You can customize a Starter Report as follows.

  1. Download the Starter Report you want to customize.
    1. Select the options menu on the right-hand side of the report .
    2. Select Download to download the report as an .RDL file to your computer.
  2. Modify the .RDL file as needed using Power BI Report Builder*, and then rename the file.
  3. Upload the modified .RDL file. For instructions, see Add a Paginated Report.
Note: Uploading an .RDL file with same file name as a Starter Report will result in the Starter Report being overwritten. Before overwriting or deleting a Starter Report note that, once it's been removed, the original Starter Report will not be replaced in future updates of Trimble Construction One Analytics. However, if the Starter Report tag is renamed or deleted, it will be replaced in future updates.
