How do you view team member scheduled absences in RTC 3.0.1?
4 answers
you can look at a single users scheduled absences or use the capability to allocate resources to a project. The latter capability can only be used if you are using the Formal Project Management process template.
Is this the general direction of what you are looking for?

If you are still interested a report has been developed and can be downloaded from https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/ReportsCentral#Team_Absences
Hope this helps

@mattm: Will that report work in a 3.0.1 environment? The wiki page it is on is very 2.0-ish.
Yes, the Wiki page that the report is available on is for RTC 2.0 but we've just installed it into a 3.0.1.1 environment for several projects and it appears to be working well. Our users are really liking it as well.
I have seen a forum entry stating that there is a glitch with the report when it spans December to January so you will need to be aware of that.
Hi,
Im new using RTC and im interested in implement that report too, can you tell me wath i have to do?
There is guidance available on creating and installing reports in the Reports section --> https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/ReportsMain
You will need to have the eclipse client installed and the report modules installed in eclipse - the information on how to do this is available from the link above.
Thank you very much Matt, i'll test it! =D
Hi Matt, i installed the modules and now i can edit the report, but i dont understand what i need to edit to see the report, i already changed the datasources for my jazz server.
Can you help me?
You will need to be in the 'Report Design' view.
If you want to run the report in eclipse switch to the 'Preview' tab at the bottom of the report tab, report will be run and you will be able to see the result.
If you want to run the report in RTC you will need to do the following:
1. In the bottom right pane select the 'Team Artifacts' tab
2. Expand the project that you want to install the report into
3. Expand the 'Reports' folder
4. Right click the 'Report Templates' folder
5. Select 'New > Report Template...'
6. In the 'Contents' section of the 'Report Template' portlet click the 'Browse...' button to navigate to where you have saved the report you want to use as the template. You can also edit the fields in the 'Properties' section to your preference for naming / description.
7. Click 'OK'
8. Expand 'Shared Reports' or 'My Reports', right click on the folder that you want to place the new report in and select 'New > Report...'
9. Select the report from the list displayed and click 'OK'
You will now be able to see the report in the RTC web client by going to the 'Reports' menu.

Thanks Matt. And what do I need to display a report in a dashboard? I have imported the design and can run the report from the reports menu.
To display reports in a dashboard you need to convert the template to a 'micro' report template.
You can find out how to do this on the 'How to Create Micro BIRT Report Templates' page (https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/HowToCreateMicroBIRTReportTemplates)

I can confirm that it works in 4.0.6 and 5.0 M4 Thank you for working through this. It does seem to need at least one Team Area but I am not sure about that yet.
Do you have any idea how Team Absences report decides to include Teams and Contributors? I have one 5.0 M4 JKE Banking Sample app that has /Business Recovery Matters and /Release Engineering (but not Energy Efficiency) with all of the users as contributors and another 5.0M4 JKE Banking Sample with nothing listed at all. In the PA with nothing showing, it is LDAP enabled so Al, Ursula etc are not valid users, but I am and I have some Team Absences recorded and I am a member of Business recovery matters but I do not show when I run the report
Robert, I have a theory that I have not been able to confirm. It may have to do with the roles assigned to the members of the team areas that are not showing up. For example, team areas with just users with a stakeholder role do not show up.

Hello Everyone,
Vishnu M
We have the same problem with version 4.0.6. Both parameter are empty.
Please advise.
Thanks.

Please look and see what roles the members in your team have.
