After successfully implementing a pair of S650 WSAs, I am now being asked by our management for various reports. I have produced a number of custom Sawmill reports which provide most of the information needed, but I am having trouble trying to produce one report. The requirement is to show a breakdown of sites vsisited for each user, including the time spent, by month, such as in this example:
Name | Date | Website | Time spent | Total per month |
Joe Bloggs | 1.3.10 | www.e-bay.co.uk | 1.30 hrs |
|
Joe Bloggs | 4.3.10 | www.First Choice.co.uk | 45 mins |
|
Joe Bloggs | 6.3.10. | www.Boats4us.com | 25 mins |
|
|
|
|
| 2.40 hrs
|
Paul Smith | 2.3.10 | www.Facebook.com | 3.45 hrs |
|
Paul Smith | 8.3.10 | www.gjw.co.uk | 25 mins |
|
Paul Smith | 9.3.10 | www.fashion.com | 4 mins |
|
Paul Smith | 12.3.10 | www.fashion .com | 2 mins |
|
|
|
|
| 5.15 hrs |
I have looked at using a Report Element of "Table with Sub-table" and, while this would work for sessions/hits, it won't show the time fields as these only appear to be available in the "Sessions" report elements. Any help or advice on how to accomplish this task would be greatly appreicated.

I don't believe it is possible due to some functional constraints within Sawmill. Tables/sub-tables work well with standard reports elements that have strings or counters - but not when Sawmill needs to sessionalize the data and calculate time usage.

Thanks for the advice Tim, I can now stop spending time trying to generate an impossible report. I will just have to use the "Time by Server" report and filter it for a single user, although with over 600 people in our company, I will need to pick specific targets rather than produce reports covering everyone!
