How do I automate and schedule reports in Policy Manager?

Issue:

Resolution:

You can configure Web Reporting to send regular reports by email to one or more recipients.

To send the reports by email, you need to enter the mail server details in Policy Manager Console. To do this:

Select Tools > Server configuration and click the Mail tab.
Enter the mail server address and authentication information.
Enter the address that you want to display as the sender in the report emails. This does not have to be a valid email address.
Click OK.

To configure the report scheduling:

Note: You cannot schedule reports for individual hosts, only for domains. You can use the root domain if you want the reports to cover all configured domains.

Use semi-colons to separate multiple addresses.

If you choose to send the reports on a monthly basis, the reports for each month are automatically sent on the first day of the following month.

On the Web Reporting main page, select Scheduled reporting.
On the policy domain tree, select the domain that you want to use for the reports.
Note: You cannot schedule reports for individual hosts, only for domains. You can use the root domain if you want the reports to cover all configured domains.
In the Recipient emails field, enter the email addresses that should receive the reports.
Choose whether to send the reports daily, weekly or monthly.
- If you want to send the reports on a weekly basis, select the weekday.
- If you choose to send the reports on a monthly basis, the reports for each month are automatically sent on the first day of the following month.
Select which reports you want to send.

The listed recipients will receive the selected reports in HTML format according to your settings.
