Is there any way to add the graphs we see in NPM for various network nodes such as trends for bandwidth, percent usage on interfaces, etc into a custome report?
You could create a view with the graphs and the report on it, and then email the view through the Report Scheduler utility.
I am new to solar winds, so forgive my ignorance!
But wear do you create this "view" at?

Go into the Admin (click "Settings" in upper right corner) section of the WebUI and from there choose the option "Manage Views". In here you can create different dashboards when can then be used to send as reports.
Hope this helps!
then of course, following the creation of your view, you would need to be logged on to the server and navigate to start>programs>solarwindsorion>alerting,reporting, and mapping>report scheduler. This opens up the reports scheduler utilty where you can create a job to email a web page using the url. it works great, and looks nice for any who are receiving it.
This might be helpful.
