Variables
Variables
All variables are optional, except for Variables 5, 6, 7..
Variables W, X, Y, Z, 2, 3,4 are used to tell our reporting HOW you identify your HP Item Records. These variables are like filters and function as an AND filter. So a given Item Record would need to have all codes you list in each variable.
Variable W: Item Categories to Include (separate multiples with comma)
Variable X: Inventory Codes to Include (separate multiple with commas)
Variable Y: Sales Codes to Include (separate multiples with commas)
Variable Z: Service Codes to Include (separate multiples with commas)
Variable 1: Yes or No, Include OEM Compatible Items?
Variable 2: Yes or No, Include only items with HPAmplifyReporting custom property set to Yes?
Variable 3: Makes on Item Records to Include (separate multiples with comma)
Variable 4: Models on Item Records to Include (separate multiples with comma)
Variable 5: HP assigned Partner Reporter ID
All of these variables (except for Variable5, your Reporter ID) are found on Item Record:
Variable 6: Include/Exclude Managed/Transactional SKUs (as defined by HP)
0 = Report both Managed and Transactional SKUs
1 = Report Managed SKUs only
2 = Report Transactional SKUs only
HP gave us a list of items that are considered Managed SKUs. We put those items in a table. If you have Var6 set to 1 then we only report on items in that table. If you set Var6 to 2 then we only report items not in that table based on their other variable settings. If set to 0 then we report on everything based on their other variable settings.
Variable 7: Item Number or OEM Number (this number will populate in ColumnB and ColumnE on report)
Which field to pull Partner Reported ProductID field and Reseller's Product Number from.
0 = Pull from item number field in Eautomate
1 = Pull from OEM Number field in Eautomate

OnDemand Report Filters
OnDemand Report Filters
1 - Be sure your filters match your ID73 variables (filters) EXACTLY. This report is a snap shot of inventory at the time it runs, so there is NO period filter option. Unfortunately, eAuto does not store historical inventory data. If you need to run this report for period in past, please contact help@ceojuice.com.
All filters optional. Filters are used to tell SSRS Report HOW you identify your HP MIF/Equipment Records. These filters are an AND filter, so a given Equipment/Contract Record would need to have all codes you list in each filter.
2 - Enter multiple entries in each field with comma(s).
3 - Users will need eAuto permissions to run Inventory Reports.
4 - When running via SSRS, you need to export to Excel and save as excel. Then open it again and save it as .csv before submitting it to HP. This ensures the column headers stay as needed. Be sure to save the file with this naming convention required by HP: V2_Type_AMPLIFY_ReporterID_DateFROM_DateTO
Step 1:
* * *
The above filter settings correspond to these fields on an Item Record:
Item Number or OEM Number refers to which field to pull Partner Reported ProductID field and Reseller's Product Number from:
Include / Exclude Managed SKUs gives options on whether to include or exclude Managed and/or Transcations SKUs based on a table of SKU numbers, provided to us by HP, that are considered by HP to be "Managed" item numbers as opposed to "Transactional" item numbers:
