Abstract: A system and method for facilitating timely end user creation, customization, and/or configuration of analytic reports in a computing environment, such as an enterprise-computing environment. An example method includes receiving configuration information characterizing one or more User Interface (UI) features to be incorporated into an analytic report; employing the configuration information to generate one or more database queries to selectively retrieve data from the database; using the configuration information and the one or more database queries to construct an analytic template; and publishing the analytic template so that the analytic template is accessible to one or more end users of the computing environment. In a more specific embodiment, the computing environment includes an enterprise-computing environment, and the one or more users include enterprise personnel.

Abstract: A system and method for facilitating end-user creation and use of an analytic report that is derived from or based on an analytic report template. The example method includes displaying a User Interface (UI) display screen that incorporates page data derived from a database; providing, in the UI display screen, one or more user options to select an analytic report associated with the UI display screen; generating an analytic report corresponding to the selection, in part by employing a portion of the page data to automatically generate one or more queries in accordance with configuration information specified in the analytic report, the one or more queries configured to selectively retrieve the analytic report data from the database in accordance with the configuration information; and using the one or more queries to populate one or more features of the analytic report with the report data derived from the database, yielding a populated analytic report in response thereto, which is then displayed.
