TSM VE report capabilites

WE are using TSM VE and have competition with VEEAM.
It look like there is lack of capabilities in the report section.
Our customer ask to get the following simple report that will contain:
VM-name; Start Backup; End Backup; Size backup; Backup Status

It look like this simple report not available in TSM VE - and support send us to review logs files in order to check the status of each VM + size backup.

Also - why there is no way to send email after backup finish with report of what success and what not - maybe include with the information we need in our report.
