Hi Henry,
Others have posted good ideas for you on this subject. Let me expand just a bit, as your team does not appear to have deep knowledge of the Clarity data model, what the system can provide you easily, etc.
It appears you have the PMO Accelerator installed. With this in mind, see if my example steps can be followed on your environment.
Using Clarity 12.1.0 I performed the following, and assume my user has access to personal Dashboards, and can create their own portlet.
1. Create a new personal dashboard.
2. Create a new grid portlet, and search for the Data Provider as {*status report}. Select Filter, and you should get the Status Report data provider
which is supplied by Clarity for the Project Status Report Subobject.
3. Name your portlet (I called mine PMO Project Status reports)
4. Make sure the Instance Type is General as you want this to be used for a dashboard, or possibly on the overview page, on a new tab from the General section, etc. This is ultimately your team's choice.
5. Select Finish and Open the portlet to continue the configuration.
6. Add the columns you want to the list view, set up the filters, etc as you need and save.
7. Add the portlet to your dashboard, test out, tune the configuration, etc.
This list can then be filtered, etc and exported to Excel if needed. Alternatively you can use this system provided Data Provider and try creating a Pie Chart, or Bar Chart, etc to better visualize project status reports. Note: This last option has yet to be tried.
