Creating a Solutions Report

You can create a Solutions Report for you and your partners to see data and performance on one or more fields for your solution or partner program, for example, to get a dashboard view of the # of solutions, expected revenue by solution, by industry, by region, etc. 

You can either select one or more solutions or partner programs or specify a dynamic query to filter current or future solutions/partner programs for your report.

You can segment the report and chart by dimensions such as by solution stage, by region or by product.

To see goals/results for one or more metrics for one or more of your solutions, select the metric(s). For example, Total Contract Value.  A column is added to the view for which it is added. The results are regularly updated when the report is refreshed.

Prerequisites

Please select and run the report on solutions on which you either have an owner or a collaborator access. Please do not select the solutions on which you are only a participant or a viewer.

Steps:

1. Go to Home >Reports and click +Report.
2. Select Create Solutions Report. Create Solutions Report window opens.
   
3. Enter the Report name.
4. Optionally, enter a description. Click Next. You can now select how you want to build your report.
   
5. As a Source for your report, select Solutions or Partner Programs.
6. In How would you like to build the report?, you can select between the options-I'll select a list of solutions or I'll specify a dynamic query. 
   1. Dynamic query option allows you to aggregate a set of solutions or partner programs by applying filters on all dynamically sourced fields in your solutions or partner programs (including fields in the templates) instead of manually adding each solution or partner program. Dynamic query based report building also provides additional flexibility and ease since the filters that you select can have the corresponding result set expanded or contracted as solutions/partner programs are created, updated, or archived.
   2. If you use Advanced Search, select your filter criteria for the solutions/partner programs for your report. You can filter by all the fields including all standard and template fields available in your solution/partner program. You cannot filter by private fields. The solutions/partner programs matching your filtering criteria will be added to your report.
7. If you select I'll specify a dynamic query, Configure Your Report screen is shown. You can select one or more filters for your report and click Save to save your filtering criteria. You can update your filtering criteria at any time. Click Next.
   
8. If you choose, I'll select a list of solutions/partner programs, then, you can individually select one or more solutions or partner programs for which you want to run this report. Click Next. Now you can share your report.
   
9. Enter names or emails of people with whom you want to share this report.
