MASTER REPORTS AND STANDARD VIEWS
In Release 5, there are three Master Reports accessible for Informit.
These provide the complete set of usage data for their subject.
■ Title Master Report (book and journal usage)
■ Platform Master Report
■ Item Master Report (articles and multimedia content)
Please note: Database Master Report is unavailable - please access usage data via Informit Insights)
Metrics
Investigations report a range of user actions related to a content item or title. The Investigations count all activity, including downloads of content.
Requests report where the user views or downloads full-content items. The Requests count only views or downloads of content itself.
TOTAL AND UNIQUE METRICS
Investigations have several metrics:
■ Total_Item_Investigations counts the total number of times a content item or information related to a content item was accessed during a session.
■ Unique_Item_Investigations counts the number of unique content items investigated by a user in a session. If a user repeatedly performs an action with the same content during a session, this is counted only once.
■ Unique_Title_Investigations is only used for books; it counts the number of unique times a book is investigated (as opposed to how often a chapter is investigated). If a user investigates several different chapters during a session, this is counted only once. Counting book usage independently from the delivery method is a new metric for Release 5.
