Please advise... any suggestions on how I can get this report?

It may turn out, that the prior admin actually did objects markup the right 
way. The matter is, when you browse the full objects list and refine filter 
criterias, you may be already seeing a break-down of current list against 
categories, which are not yet selected. In this case you only have to write a 
custom script, which will format the same data in a different way.


Is the schema stable enough that using something like Jasper's ireport or the Pentaho report designer would be a reasonable approach for more complicated things? If you aren't familiar with them, they are java interactive GUI layout tools that connect to most data sources to design reports that can subsequently be generated in various formats (html/pdf/excel, etc.) with the corresponding web server.
