By Vyom Kaushik posted 03-16-2023 15:23

  

Hello TBC’ers!

The purpose of reports in Trimble Business Center is to help users to make informed decisions based on their survey data. Reports can be generated for a variety of purposes, including:

  1. Quality control: Reports can help users to identify and correct errors in their survey data. This can include identifying missing or inconsistent data, as well as flagging potential errors or outliers.

  2. Project management: Reports can provide users with insights into project progress, including the status of survey work, the volume of data collected, and the productivity of survey teams.

  3. Communication: Reports can be used to share survey data with stakeholders, such as clients, contractors, or regulatory bodies. Reports can be customized to meet specific requirements, and can include maps, charts, and other visual aids to help convey information.

  4. Analysis: Reports can provide users with detailed insights into their survey data, including trends, patterns, and correlations. This can help users to identify opportunities for improvement, optimize their workflows, and make informed decisions based on their data.

In this tip, we'll look at how to generate pre-defined reports including Adjustments Reports and Point List Reports.

1) Make sure your project is loaded in TBC and current with all data you'd like in your report! In this example we're using an adjustment network.

2)  Open the Reports Options via the Quick Access Toolbar

3) Select the reports you'd like to generate! You'll notice some options to be greyed out. TBC will only present the pre-defined templates which it can generate based on your project and data type. Therefore it is important to have your project defined and data loaded prior to initiating this step. We'll now generate a Network Adjustment Report and Point List Report.

4) Point List Report will generate right within TBC itself

5) Network Adjustment Report will Generate in an HTML browses pop-out

Congratulations! You have successfully generated a pre-defined report in TBC. You can follow these steps to replicate future report generation as applicable per your project.

In upcoming TBC tips, we'll talk about generating custom reports and importing TBC data into user defined templates.

You're all set! Maximize your TBC experience and ensure smooth workflows by utilizing learning & support material most aligned with your needs and personal preferences.
