Reporting

The Reporting function enables you to display the total number of pages scanned. The report includes activity for all devices connected to a ShareScan Manager or for a single device.

The Reporting function displays the total number of scans done from a device on a particular day in a graphical (Bar Graph) representation.

For all reports Previewing, Printing, and Exporting of base reporting data to XML is supported. If the report generates more than 10 data points (elements), the report is split across multiple pages and Previous and Next buttons are displayed for navigation.
