Simple Exec Templates

Simple metric summaries.

These show you the basic components needed to build these common reports. In order to provide simple, centralised examples they are built on system views and should be replicated on your custom view. They allow you to copy and explore their simple configuration in order to build your own versions.

EXEC+ Templates

These are designed to give comprehensive insights into your data, and thus require careful design and customisation.
