Add a Report

Add a report to generate information about your deployment. You select a report template for the type of report you want to add, and customize the template for the specific information you want the report to provide.

Procedure

  1. In the Security Console, click Reporting > Reports > Add New.

  2. On the Select Template page, select a template for the report.

    Each template contains different input parameters and output columns. The Description column provides a summary of each template.

  3. Click Next.

  4. From the Security Domain menu, select the security domain where you want the report to be managed.

    The security domain designates which administrators can manage the report.

  5. In the Report Name field, enter a unique name for the report.

    Do not exceed 64 characters.

  6. Select one of the following options for Run As:

    • The administrator running the report job. The report data is limited to the scope of the administrator who runs the report.

    • The report creator. The report data is limited to the scope of the administrator who created the report. If the administrator running the report has a narrower scope than the report creator, the report will include data from the broader scope of the report creator.

    Only the administrator who created the report can change the Run As option.

  7. Under Output Columns, move the items that you want to display in the report from the Available column to the Show in Report column.

  8. Under Input Parameter Values, either enter values or leave the fields blank.

    If you leave the fields blank, administrators can set values when they run the report. If you enter values, the administrator must use these values when running the report. To include administrators with a specific role in a report, you must specify the role name. This name is case sensitive.

  9. Under Email Recipients, either select the checkboxes or leave them blank:

    • Configured Email Recipients is a standard group of administrator email addresses that you configure. For instructions, see Configure Report Notification.

    • Individual Email Addresses allows you to enter additional email addresses. Separate each email address with a semicolon.

    When you run the report and the report is complete, an email notification is sent to the selected email addresses. The email notification includes the report name and a link to the report.

  10. Click Save.

After you finish

You can run the report manually, or schedule the report to run at specified times.
