Dashboard Reports

By default, reports use the Client ID property as an identifier for an installation/user. This may be changed in some reports to use a different property as the identifier. When doing so, multiple installations sharing the same value of the selected property will be grouped as a single installation. For example, if I choose to group by the License Key property, two installations using the same license key will be counted as one installation in the reports.

To change the identifier property, select a property from the Group By list in the report toolbar.

The properties available for grouping are:

• Client ID (default)
• Machine ID
• License Key
• Custom properties of type 3

If an installation does not have a value set for the selected identifier property, that installation will not be included in the report. 

NOTE: The Machine ID property was introduced in version 5 of the Usage Intelligence SDK. When grouping by Machine ID, clients using an older version of the SDK will therefore not be included in the report.
