All reporting is done via ODBC connections and Crystal Reports

There are two ODBC connections available:

  1. The main database (WOL_Prod)
  2. The logs and stats database (WOL_Prod_Log)

ODBC connections are configurable in Site Settings. But generally shouldn't need to be changed from their default.

Reports themselves have their connections remapped to the config settings. The convention is as follows:

  1. Any DSNs which do not start with WOL_ are not touched
  2. Any DSNs which start with WOL_ and end in _LOG are remapped to the logs and stats database
  3. Any DSNs which start with WOL_ and do not end in _LOG are remapped to the main database

The following common parameters are passed to every report:
