Cabling Reports

Cabling-owned reports you can run from Generate a Report, Cabling Reports, Design Manager, or the command line.

Cabling Reports are CadActive reports owned by Cabling. They appear in the Creo report picker when Cabling is licensed. How you pick and save a file is Generate a Report. Built-in Reporting library reports stay on Standard reports.

You need a Cabling license to see these in the picker, and a Reporting license to export. There is no web catalog. File location and default format follow Settings for Reporting.
