- Parameters: Displays the number of parameters in the reports.
Visualizations
This section displays the graphical visualizations used in the reports such as charts, matrixes, tables, text boxes, etc.
Parameters
This section provides details about the report and query parameters.
- Report Parameters: Refers to parameters present in reports that are used to filter the data.
- Query Parameters: Refers to a defined set of parameters to retrieve or fetch data from the database.
Filters
This section provides information about filters including dataset and report filters. It is a process of filtering out the data to minimize the data set size, remove irrelevant records, etc.

- Total Columns: Total number of columns available in the entities.
- Calculated Columns: Columns in which functions or operations such as min, max, sum, avg, etc. are implemented for calculation.
Analysis
This topic provides a detailed examination of source files, datasets, reports, and parameters.
Files

- Shared: Refers to a dataset that is published or defined on a report server. This dataset is used across multiple reports on the same server.
- Embedded: Refers to a dataset defined within a specific report. This dataset is used only in that specific report.
- Report: The report dataset does not contain data; instead, it defines a reference point to the shared dataset that needs to be used in the report.
- Columns: Displays the number of associated columns.
- Filters: Displays the number of filters in each dataset.
- Parameters: Displays the number of parameters in each dataset.
- Calculated Columns: Displays the number of calculated columns.

- File Name: Displays the file name.
- Visualization Objects: Displays the number of visualization objects in each file.
- Parameters: Displays the number of parameters in each file.
- Filters: Displays the number of filters in each file.
Parameters
This section provides details about parameters including its types, datasets, and associated files.
- Parameter Name: Displays the name of the parameter.
- Type: Displays the parameter types such as query or report.
- Report Parameters: Refers to parameters present in reports that are used to filter the data.
- Query Parameters: Refers to a defined set of parameters to retrieve or fetch data from the database.
- Dataset: Displays the dataset associated with each parameter.
- File: Displays the file path where the parameter is present.
