Blitz Report License Users - Case Study & Technical Analysis

Executive Summary

Blitz Report License Users is a current-state compliance report. It lists the specific users who are currently considered "active" for licensing purposes (typically defined as having run a report in the last 60 days). It also provides insight into their usage patterns by showing their most frequently executed reports.

Business Challenge

  • License Management: Identifying exactly who is consuming a license.
  • Cost Optimization: Finding users who have a license but barely use it (e.g., ran one report 59 days ago).
  • User Profiling: Understanding what the "Power Users" are actually doing.

Solution

This report joins the user table with the execution logs and the license definition logic.

  • Active List: Provides the names of all active users.
  • Top Reports: Shows what each user is running most often.

Technical Architecture

Key Tables

  • XXEN_REPORT_LICENSE_USERS: A view or table that encapsulates the logic for determining who counts as a licensed user.
  • XXEN_REPORT_RUNS: Execution history.

Logic

The query filters for users with activity in the defined window (e.g., sysdate - 60) and aggregates their run history to find the top reports.

Parameters

  • (None listed, likely a system snapshot).
