RtReports is a powerful, fully configurable enterprise reporting application used with a PI System for generating electronic reports. With RtReports, you can produce repeatable reports without programming. A report may include aggregated data, such as averages or maximums, as well as conditional logic and PI Performance Equations. All data is maintained in its original fidelity, and changes to the original data are tracked.
RtReports allows users to specify the format, contents, and management of reports about your data. Reports are based on the plant configuration, specifications, and production data stored in the PI System. External data sources may be obtained through RtBaselineServices, a server-side data access layer that retrieves data from relational databases. RtReports can perform sophisticated calculations with your data. Generated reports are fully versioned and auditable.
RtReports 5.1 adds the ability to store RtReports application data in Asset Framework, and the ability to export report generations to CSV file format. It also addresses several issues around automatic report generation and includes security enhancements, bug fixes, and other improvements.
Multiple security enhancements were added, including disabling passwords for relational database data sources and updating server certificate validation. Please review the documentation for additional information on these enhancements.
