Which component allows for embedding SQL queries in reports?

The ability to embed SQL queries in reports is a feature offered by the Historian Client Report component. This functionality is essential for users who need to generate customized reports based on specific data queries. By allowing SQL queries to be integrated directly into the report design, users can dynamically retrieve and display data from the Historian database according to their analytical needs, facilitating more tailored reporting solutions.

Selecting the Historian Client Report enables greater flexibility in how data is presented, allowing for detailed analysis and insights drawn directly from the structured data stored within the Historian. This feature enhances the reporting capabilities by leaving less reliance on pre-defined data or static reports, empowering users to extract relevant information directly as needed.

Other components, while they may offer useful functions, do not provide the capability to embed SQL queries. For instance, the Historian Client Query is more focused on data retrieval, while the ActiveX Control Browser pertains to user interface elements rather than report generation. The AVEVA Historian Server functions as the backend database and management system but does not handle report design or SQL embedding in reports directly. Thus, the Historian Client Report is the correct choice for this capability within the context of report generation and data analysis.
