Report on service catalog variables

Create reports grouped by a variable on a selected service catalog item. You can also create filters on the same variable.

Reporting on variables can be helpful in determining if certain catalog items are useful on an instance, for example.

Additionally, you can create filters on the same variable. For example, if a specific mobile phone item has a storage variable, you can create a report that only shows those phones with 32 GB of storage.

See an overview video on dot-walking to, filtering, and using catalog variables in a database view at: Reporting on Catalog Variables.
