You can configure any number of table sections for your custom reports from scratch for managed appliances by using the Central Management System appliance Web UI:
A custom report can contain one or more table sections. You can choose the attributes for each section individually. The attributes are the table columns that you can select in a custom report. You can use filter options to define the match criteria for table columns that are displayed in each section of the custom report. For details about how to define filters for table attributes in a custom report section, see Defining filters for table attributes on a custom report section using the Web UI .
Note
When you select the csv output format, xml output format, or json output format to write the custom report to a CSV file, XML file, or JSON file, you can preview only 5 rows. When you select the pdf output format to write the custom report to an Adobe PDF file, you can preview 5, 25, 50, or 100 rows.
