About reports

Reports are a useful project management tool that you can use to display query results in an easy-to-read format.

You define a report by specifying a query and a report format. When you create a report, Rational® ClearQuest® software runs the query and displays the results in the format specified. Rational ClearQuest software includes predefined reports and report formats. To modify an existing report format or to create your own, you must purchase and install Crystal Reports Professional Edition. For more information, go to http://www.businessobjects.com/products/reporting/crystalreports/. You can also create reports using Rational ClearQuest SoDA®. For more information, see the Rational SoDA help in the product-level help contents under "Using integrations" .

Important: If you are creating reports on a Japanese operating system or an English operating system with Japanese language support, you must install the Japanese version of Crystal Reports Professional Edition to avoid character-conversion problems.
