There is a very flexible high-performance reporting API available. These APIs are called readers. Currently three different reader exist:

Class	Description
/PCH/CL_BPF_RD_RPROCESS	The Process Reader is used to read processes based on many different selection criteria.
/PCH/CL_BPF_RD_RPROCESS_LISTNG	The Enhanced Process Reader is based on the above mentioned Process Reader but extends the available fields for better readability (e.g. Name of the user, Status description, ...)
/PCH/CL_BPF_RD_RACTIVITY	The Activity Reader is used to read based on activities but also provides information about its parents objects (part process, process).

...

Field	Description
Process Reader
/PCH/BPF_RPRC	Contains all the runtime information about a process. Please refer to this structure to see the available fields.
Enhanced Process Reader (in addition to the Process Reader)
STATUS_DESC	Description of the process status (e.g. Completed)
PRIORITY_DESC	Description of the priority (e.g. Low)
OBJECT_TYPE_EXT	Description of the object type (e.g. Material)
BEZEI	Description of the process
PROCESS_ID	External ID of the process
VERSION	Version of the process
INITIATOR_NAME	Full name of the process initiator (e.g. Hans Müller)
OBJECT_KEY_EXT	Object key in external representation (e.g. without leading zeros)
CREATED_NAME	Full name of the user who has (technically) created the process
STARTED_NAME	Full name of the user who has (technically) started the process
COMPLETED_NAME	Full name of the user who has finished the process
CANCELLED_NAME	Full name of the user who has aborted the process
OVERDUE_SINCE	Overdue in days if a process is overdue
Activity Reader
/PCH/BPF_RACT	Contains all the runtime information about an activity. Please refer to this structure to see the available fields.
/PCH/BPF_RSPC	Contains all the runtime information about the corresponding part process. Please refer to this structure to see the available fields.
/PCH/BPF_RPRC	Contains all the runtime information about the corresponding process. Please refer to this structure to see the available fields.
TITLE	Title of the corresponding workitem
ACTIVITY_ID_EXT	External id of the activity
ACTIVITY_DESC	Description of the activity
PARTPROCESS_ID_EXT	External id of the part process

PROCESS_ID_EXT	External id of the process
PROCESS_DESC	Description of the process
PRIORITY_DESC	Description of the priority (e.g. Low)
