Managing Chargeback Reports

Cloud service providers can view, schedule, and generate reports in VMware Aria Operations. You can create report templates for your tenants.

A report template contains views and dashboards. Views present collected information for an object. Dashboards give a visual overview of the performance and state of objects in your environment.

As a cloud service provider, you can:

• View and access all report templates, for information on accessing reports, see Accessing Report Templates.
• Create report templates for tenants by selecting the Template for Tenant option, for more information, see Create a Report Template.
• Generate a report for a specific Org-VDC, for more information, see Generate and Regenerate a Report. You can order the reports by the date and time that they were created, the report name, the object on which the report is generated, the owner, or the status.
• Schedule a report for a specific Org-VDC, for more information, see Schedule a Report. Cloud service providers can generate tenant reports on demand or they can schedule them to be emailed to their tenants.
