How to configure Counter in Report

Question

Newbie question - How can I configure Counter to be displayed in BAM Report. I have added three business indicators one being a counter. I see that my other two indicators are recorded in the BAM Data Object I created, I also see that my Project Counter is getting stored in Counter BAM Data Object. How do I link these and come up with an BAM Report whose values are based on the Counter. I am using 11G.

Assuming you are referring to Monitor Express dashboard and using monitor objects for your BPEL or BPM process in JDEV (counters, intervals, business indicators).
The Monitor Express Dashboard (and subreports) is essentially a template you can use to quickly get an idea of the processes you are trying to monitor.
From the 2nd tab "Process View "(which is the subreport titled Monitored Process Details"), does have a view which uses the Counter dataobject and lists the Counter name and count of instances passed that particular counter.
Essentially, you can create any report against this Counter dataobject. You can edit and add/remove views in the Monitor Express Dashboard to be solely based on the Counter dataobject.
But the 1st thing to do is understand the data captured in the dataobject itself. The fieldnames are fairly explanatory.
Hope this helps.
