Benefits of creating Scheduled Reports
Keeping up-to-date with threat detection statistics and system activity, and sharing that information is
vital. The Scheduled Reports option has some default report types already set up for you, or you can
customize their content or frequency, or even create new report types as necessary. The resulting
reports can be sent by email immediately, or at regular intervals to other people in your organization
in a variety of formats, such as PDF, HTML, or text.
You must enable the default reports to run automatically. To do so, select
the report type from the list of available reports, and click
Edit
. On the
Edit Report dialog box, click Enable scheduled delivery .
