The Reporting module

The Reporting module enables you to generate reports easily with the report templates available in SciVal, or create your own custom reports tailored to specific needs.

How to use the Reporting module?

In the Reporting module, you can use the following templates provided by SciVal to create a report:


Summary
A comprehensive research performance summary of any single entity


Basic Benchmark
A report benchmarking multiple entities against each other based on a variety of citation metrics


Enriched Benchmark
A detailed history of the author impact of the selected entity(ies) from "Research and Groups" since 1996


Collaboration
A report of collaboration overview and citation impact of an entity from "Institutions and Groups", "Researchers and Groups" or "Countries, Regions and Groups"


After selecting a template, you will have to choose at least one entity to populate your report. Save your report with a meaningful name and then click "Create report" to generate the report. The new report will be prompted, and you can make further changes to your report, for example: 

  • Adding or removing analyses

  • Changing the order of the analyses

  • Modifying the setting of an analyses e.g. the entity, year range and subject area etc.

Click on "Save as" → "Save Report" to save the changes or to export the report for a deeper analysis. You can also save the modified report as a template for your future use.

Alternatively, you can also use the "Report from template" button () from the header of the Overview and Trends modules to generate a report.


The reports in SciVal are dynamic which will be updated weekly based on Scopus data. You need to export the report if you need a snapshot in time

Reports in SciVal are composed of a single or up to 20 analyses. You can create a custom report tailored to your specific needs by combining multiple analyses into a single report.
