Unfortunately, NBU does not inherently create such a report. It doesn't 
take into consideration jobs which initially failed but succeeded during 
subsequent attempts. Advanced Reporter doesn't have that capability, NOM 
won't have that capability intially, nor do any of the 3rd. party 
reporting applications that I'm aware of. You'll need to custom code 
such a report (as I did).
