Implementing Filestore Reporting
A useful and often overlooked feature of the FSRM component is reporting. You can generate FSRM reports immediately (also known as Interactive) or at a scheduled time. The latter causes FSRM to create reports on a weekly or monthly basis. FSRM defines several basic report types that you can use.
FSRM produces reports with a fixed layout that you cannot change. FSRM can return the same data contained in the HTML report but as an XML document. You can then use the XML document to create the report the way you need it.
