How to create a report in e.tool
This article explains how to generate a report once you have set up a project with solutions in e.tool.
Before you create a report, make sure your project is set up with the solutions and products you want to include. If you have not built your solutions yet, do that first (see the related articles below).
To create a report:
- Go to Project Manager and open the client and project you want to report on.
- Open the Reports section of the project.
- Select the report type you need:
- Baseline Report – documents the current carbon and energy footprint of a single solution.
- Comparative Report – compares two to five solutions to show the energy and carbon differences.
- Life Cycle Report – shows carbon data across all life cycle phases, from production to end of life.
- Refurbishment Report – quantifies the carbon benefits of refurbished hardware compared with new.
- Open Report Settings (the three-dot menu) to adjust the report before generating it. Here you can turn individual sections on or off and set the decimal precision.
- Generate the report and download it as a PDF to share with your client.
Notes and exceptions
For the best results when generating and exporting reports, use Google Chrome and make sure Background Graphics is enabled in your print settings. Other browsers may not render the report correctly.
