Generating Command-Line Reports
Available only for FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications’s Classic reports, command-line reporting functionality in FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications is provided to support legacy back-office systems of customers migrating from SAMsuite to FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications. All functionality provided by command-line reporting can be achieved using the FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications interface.
You can configure an entire report on the command line, without the use of configuration files. For more information, run the command flexnet report -help in the FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications installation directory.
The report log must be imported into FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications before a report can be created. Use the bulkimport function to import the log and then create a report.
