Viewing Assessment Reports
Perform the following steps to generate and view the Workload Assessment Report:
In the platform, navigate to Assessments > Reports.
To view a report, click on any of the following report names. Alternatively, you can click View Report corresponding to the report you would like to generate.
- Workload Assessment Detailed Report
- Workload Assessment Summary Report
- Workload Assessment Issue Report
Next, you need to apply filters.
Applying Filters
To apply filters for the following fields, click the downward arrow and select an option. Selecting filters is required to view Assessment reports.
The filters include:
- Workload
- Assessment
- Framework
Note:
The options in the Workload filter appear based on the scenarios explained below.
Scenario 1:
Users must first select an option in the Workload drop-down, based on which options are displayed in the Assessment drop-down list.
If a workload has at least one active account associated with it, then it will appear in the Workload drop-down list. And if a workload does not have any active accounts associated with it, then it will not appear in the drop-down list.
However, since workloads are versioned, if the latest version of the workload has disabled accounts, but an earlier version had valid accounts, then the older workload version will not be displayed in the Workload drop-down since only the release version of the workload is validated.
Note that the earlier version of the workload may also have active assessments.
Scenario 2:
For the selected workload, the Assessment filter shows the list of all assessments. Some Assessment filter options might be associated with an earlier version of the workload, and therefore might have all accounts disabled, but would still be displayed in the filter drop-down.
However, on selecting such an Assessment option and going ahead with report generation, the report would not have any data since the accounts are disabled.
You can also apply optional filters for the Workload Assessment Detailed Report, which are only available for this report.
To apply optional filters, click ADD+ and select one of the following fields:
- Best Practices Nature
- Best Practices Severity
- Best Practices Status
- Pillars
In the selected fields, click the downward arrow and select the relevant options, then click OK.
Note:
- Click Select All to select all the available options.
- You can click the condition is to change it to is not.
Repeat the previous steps to add more conditional filters, if desired. Then click Apply.
Once completed, the platform will start generating the report (this may take a few seconds).
