Integrity LM: Administration Configuration Reports

[#1]

Intention

This document is intended to describe the current status of Integrity LM configuration reports and to collect related discussions and ideas.

Configuration Reports for W&D

1. Integrity Docs
   • Custom developed offline solution creating static html pages about types and triggers for review and sharing
   • Is provided as a JAR file to be executed on client
   • 
2. One alternative is "Type Fields in Excel"
   • Custom developed offline solution creating Excel Files instead of html files with similar information
   • Especially helpful when you are in a workshop and like to track requested changes directly in Excel for later implementation
   • Is provided as a JAR file to be executed on client
   • 
     
     
3. IMConfig
   • Custom developed Online solution for Admin reporting. For Type-Fields, the same java code is used here like in solution #2.
   • And, it offers many more reporting, not only "Type-Fields-Workflows". For example, it offers also reporting for User-Group-Dynamic-Group details.
   • Is provided as a single WAR file to be copied to the server
     
   • 
4. Administration Reports
   • Custom developed Word Export showing Administration Configuration Details for Types, States, Fields etc.
   • 
     
     
5. CLI
   • You can use the CLI to create config lists in CSV or XML format, and upload the same into any custom reporting tool.
   • I am using #3 instead, where possible.
     
     
6. Relationship and Trace Listing
   • Custom Developed Excel List for all admin Relationships  and Traces. Created for Documentation and Validation purposes.
   • 
7.  Trigger Overview 

• This report lists all Triggers with the name, and they are ordered by the type names on which the trigger fires.

• Each box represents a trigger. Additional flags highlighting the type, the pre or post mode, if a script is linked etc.

• 

Configuration Reports for Config Mgmt:

1. for ACLs:
   • Standard Client Form providing ACL details in regards to given ACLs for users/groups and projects, subprojects
2. In General
   • You can use the CLI to create config lists in CSV or XML format, and upload the same into any custom reporting tool.

Next Steps

• If you are aware of any other solution that I should list above, please post it here as comment.
• If you are aware of any other related Idea or Discussion that I should reference, please post it also.

Where are these utilities located?

Hi Paul,
Thanks for asking. If you are a PTC employee you can get them from our internal reusable database. If you are an external (non PTC) employee, then drop me an email or a personal message with your email adress and I will contact you from where you can get them.
Thank you
