Publish a static workbook report

For a static report, data is retrieved at the time the report is published to the AVEVA Information Server. After that, its content remains static and does not change when users access it. If you want current data to be retrieved every time a user requests the report, use a dynamic on-demand report instead.

To publish a static workbook report:

1. Create a workbook sheet and save it as an .xlsx file.

2. On the Historian tab, in the Publish group, click Static Report. The Publish Report dialog box appears.

   The Report name box displays the name of the workbook report as it appears in AVEVA Information Server. This name is automatically created based on the name of the file that is being published.

3. In the Server list, click the name of the AVEVA Historian on which to store the report publishing information.

4. In the Report site list, select the URL of the AVEVA Information Server to which you want to publish the report.

   The report site may or may not be physically located on the AVEVA Historian computer.

5. In the Report type area, click Static.

6. In the Folder list, click the name of the physical folder on the report site where the static report is posted.

7. Click OK. The Report successfully published dialog box appears.

   Note: The AVEVA Information Server periodically scans the publishing folders for changes; a short delay may occur prior to the published report being displayed in the AVEVA Information Server.

8. To view the AVEVA Information Server, click Browse. Otherwise, click Done.
