Reports Overview

The Reports module provides administrators with a centralized location to access, generate, and analyze data across various operational areas. Its primary purpose is to assist management in tracking sales, monitoring parking activity, auditing violations, managing incidents, and overseeing financial transactions. This article is intended for OPS-COM administrators responsible for data analysis and operational reporting.

Setup and Configuration

The Reports module is a core administrative tool and does not require extensive initial configuration to function.

Admin Side: Administrators must have the appropriate system role permissions enabled to view and generate specific reports. Access to financial, violation, or incident data is restricted based on these assigned roles.

Using this Feature

Administrators can use the following instructions to navigate the module and access specific data sets.

  1. Hover over the main menu and click Reports.

  2. Select the specific report you wish to view from the categorized lists (Parking, Violations, Incidents, or Payments).

  3. Configure your required date ranges or filters on the specific report page to generate the data.

Best Practices and Considerations

  • Export data for offline analysis: Use the export functionality to download data to Excel. Many reports, such as the Unprocessed PaymentsĀ report, offer this feature to help you maintain external audit logs or manipulate data outside of the system.

  • Monitor automated release lists: Ensure that users provide valid payment methods during the permit reservation process. The Midnight ListĀ is an automated utility that flags permits to be released if no payment promise was confirmed; monitoring this ensures data and revenue integrity.

  • Utilize specific filters: Utilize the available date and type filters when querying large data sets. Applying targeted filters to high-volume lists, such as the Violations by Officer Report, minimizes system load times and allows you to focus strictly on the specific data sets you need.
