I have searched through this forum and the Suggestions forum and I can't seem to find any suggestions or questions dealing with reporting based on the data available in UR (except for the tag cloud suggestion, bleh ;)).

Which is somewhat surprising to me, as I intend to use it mainly as a PIM application. It'd be nice to be able to make all kinds of cool reports based on the information I add.

Right now I can think of one example:
- How productive am I being? How many tasks / appointments do i complete on average per week? Maybe a nice graph which shows this from week 1-52 throughout the year.

This thread is mostly to spur some discussion as I'm curious if there are others that have a desire in this direction or if I've missed threads dealing with this.

well, just do a required search and "copy attribute values" in the child pane and paste to excel where you can do whatever you want ... I graph my UR "activity" this way ...

it would be nice if some parts of this could be available natively inside UR, but I can imagine thousands of silly requests to change the graph colour or whatever that would hinder the real development of UR ;-)

Well - I guess tag clouds are a kind of report. Never thought of it that way. Don't agree with the 'Bleh' though. :)

Actually - with the related panes I do get some kind of quasi-rudimentary reporting.

But I agree, it would be nice to have robust reporting within URP3.

But exporting to CSV makes pretty much any flat-file report I want available via Excel.

I'll try that as well then ;).
