- JR1 (Journal)
- DB1 (Database)
- BR1, 2, 5 (Book)
- Click-Throughs
- Search and Browse
- 360 Link Usage
- 360 Search Usage
Note that in order for a scheduled Counter usage report to run, the relevant Counter report needs to be successfully uploaded to your Intota or Client Center profile. Intota users can see their list of uploaded reports on the COUNTER Reports page, Client Center users can see their list of uploaded reports on the 360 Counter Landing Page in the Client Center.
- Note that the scheduling tool retrieves the most recent data from the last calendar year's Counter report. The system does not support scheduling reports with older data, for example, from 2013.
Scheduled reports are saved at the individual user level. You can set up your scheduled reports to be delivered to others within your institution, but colleagues cannot view your saved, scheduled reports on the Intota Assessment platform.
Access the Schedule Reports tool from the navigation links on the top left of Intota Assessment:
At the top of the Schedule Reports page you will see any previously created schedules, such as the below JR1 example. Note the right side information that indicates when the report was last ran and delivered:
