Predefined reports

Overview

NexJ CRM provides a number of predefined reports to help you gather and view information about your entities, schedules, service requests, and tasks.

Some predefined reports allow you to extract, save, or print data for a single record, while others summarize information across a number of different data records.

You can generate the following types of predefined reports:

  • Contact reports
    Contact reports present information for a single entity or for multiple entities from the Contacts workspace.
  • Schedule reports
    Schedule reports present information regarding schedule items for a single entity or for multiple entities from the Schedule workspace.
  • Task Reports
    Task reports present the information for your tasks from the Tasks workspace.
  • Service Request Detail reports
    Service Request Detail reports present information for one or more service requests from the Service Requests workspace.

  • SLM Touches Report
    The SLM Touches Report contains service level management information for contacts. For each touch type, it lists contacts for which the touch type applies. It displays communication and service model information for each contact, as well details of any recent and upcoming touches.

Depending on the report, the following export formats may be available:

Contact reports

Contact reports collect and display data from the Contacts workspace. Depending on the report, the information might be for a single entity, or for a collection of entities from a set of search results or a saved list.

The following contact reports are available in NexJ CRM :

  • Detail Report
    Detail Reports contain information that you provide in entity records, including addresses and communication methods, personal information, relationship information, and all custom fields and categories.

    Contact List Reports contain addressed and communication methods in a table form. The report generates only the information specified in the table heading.
  • Phone Book
    Phone Book reports contain the default addresses and communication methods.
  • Interaction Report
    Interaction Reports contain detailed information about a note for a selected entity.
  • My Contacts' Recent Activities Report
    My Contacts' Recent Activities Reports contains information about activity records for entities that you have access to in NexJ CRM. Unlike the other reports in this list, which can be generated on the Contacts workspace, the My Contacts' Recent Activities Report can be generated on the Home workspace, in the My Contacts' Recent Activities tab.

After you generate a report, depending on your browser settings, you can either access it in your Downloads folder or in the dialog that opens specify whether you want to save the report locally or open it immediately.

Detail report

The Detail report contains the following information for one or more entities:

  • First and last names for people or company names for companies.
  • Information about the entity that is contained in the entity record. For example a Detail Report for a contact, includes the contact's company, position, status, age, birthday, and tier level.
  • Addresses and communication methods.
  • Custom fields and categories.

To generate the Detail report:

  • On the Contacts workspace, ensure the entities you are interested in are displayed in the search results, or that you have loaded your saved list. Then click the Reports button in the data table toolbar and select Detail Report. If you intend to run the report for only a single contact, ensure that contact is selected before you click the button.

In the Specify Report Parameters dialog, specify the scope and format options for the report:

Generating the report this way produces a PDF with no bio, notes, or interaction information.

Contact List report

The Contact List report collects the address and communication information for one or more entities into a single table. Depending on the information available for each entity, some fields may be blank when the report generates.

Contact Reports contain the following information for the selected entities:

Phone Book report

The Phone Book report contains a subset of the information in the Contact report, focusing specifically on the default contact information for the selected entities.

Each page in the report contains two columns, and the contact data is listed alphabetically by last name. Guide names (the first and last name on each page) are also included in the upper right corner of each page. Depending on the information available for each entity, some fields may be blank when the report generates. 

Phone Book Reports contain the following information for the selected entities:

  • First and last names for people or company names for companies.
  • The default address for each entity.
  • Communication information, including business phone, home phone, mobile phone, fax number, and email.

  • Addresses and communication methods.
  • Detailed information about the note, including the note text, start date and time, and status.
