Overview of Reports

The heart of CheckPoint™ is the ability to generate reports on the wealth of data provided by your Welding
Power Sources. To help you get the most of the reports, several features and functionalities apply to all or
most reports.

Generating Reports

CheckPoint™ stores the data generated by your Welding Power Sources in the data center. When you
generate a report, CheckPoint™ goes out to that database and asks for the data based on all the criteria you
selected and whether you have a single Welding Power Source selected in the Asset Tree or a Container of
power sources selected. The data comes back and CheckPoint™ displays the report for you.

Report Criteria

The Criteria section on an individual report displays the options used for generating the report you

variety of other filters), you can click the Criteria link (Figure 6.5).

The Criteria window (Figure 6.6) displays the filters available for the individual report. Not all the Criteria
windows are the same, and some reports do not need to be filtered so have no criteria available.
