Sample reports

IBM® Rational® Insight (Rational Insight) includes a set of pre-designed reports called sample reports. These reports aid project managers and development leads to objectively measure status, progress, and overall health of projects.

Sample reports serve as a starting point for designing reports of your choice. Rather than beginning with an empty screen, you can pick from a wide selection of standard reports and dashboards to report and track your project's performance. Rational Insight sample reports make use of design best practices that are simple, parametrized, easy to understand, and triggered with a minimum of prompts. They are already created and you can run them by clicking Run Run icon in the IBM Cognos® viewer.

These reports give you a convenient starting point to create more complex reports. With these reports, you can track project performance, manage changes, track requirements, and monitor testing. Each report includes a brief description.

Sample reports, covering all the aspects of project tracking and management, are located in Public Folders, and organized under the following folders:
