RtReports Administration
Introduction
The RtReports Administration class is offered to students who want to learn how to design and generate web based regulatory compliant reports using the RtReports applications. It is intended to PI System Managers and advanced PI users. It allows students to design report templates and to become Power Users and trainers on report generation in their company.
In this class, we prepare the students to install and manage the RtReports server. The focus of this class is to teach students the best practices in report design and configuration. The class also presents the graphical interface that allows plant personnel to generate, comment, verify and approve reports.
We present the two main software components that comprise RtReports:
- RtReports Editor
- RtReports Generator
The training will allow the students to create different types of reports such as:
- PI Batch-Based reports
- Time-Based reports
- Analysis Framework Case-Based reports (overview)
The class is 3 days long. Class starts at 8:30 a.m. and ends at 4:30 p.m. Lunch breaks are at 12 p.m. each day and last 60 minutes.
