F2 Analytics
F2 Analytics is a reporting tool organisations can use to extract data from F2. This data can be analysed and serve as the basis for reports across all available information. The tool provides extraordinary access to data in F2, which is why reports are usually managed and used by users with the "F2 Analytics administrator" privilege only.
Reports drawn with Analytics provide a data foundation of measurable results. This can serve as a basis for optimising and complying with an authority’s workflows and processes. The data foundation can also be used in connection with data security and ensuring that unauthorised individuals have not had inappropriate access to data.
Basic principles in Analytics
|
Type: The report type defines from which part of F2’s database data can be extracted. Report types cover categories of data such as access usage and management reporting. These are described as part of the report reference. Report types are developed and maintained by cBrain. |
|
Configuration: A report’s configuration specifies which data is extracted within a given report type. The configuration defines the boundaries for reports that are drawn of a given type and can be thought of as a kind of template. It is also the report configuration that defines the limits of the data extraction. Report configurations are managed by users with the "F2 Analytics administrator" privilege. |
|
Report: The report is comprised of data drawn from F2. The report is based on the configuration of a relevant report type. Reports can be drawn by users with the "F2 Analytics administrator" privilege. If enabled in your organisation’s F2, users with this privilege have the option of making specific report configurations available to regular users, who can then draw reports with these configurations. |
