Figure 7-5. Scheduled Reports Window

Scheduled reports offer the following advantages:

Allows quick access to pre-configured reports on a scheduled basis instead of keeping

active tabs in a web browser.

Allows the generation of reports to take place in the background at off-peak times to

minimize impact on system performance.

Allows distribution of scheduled reports to users from a selected directory without giving

access to policy configuration or system information outside a particular users authority.

When you schedule a report, a subdirectory is created with the specified name in the

"scheduledreports" directory according to the following structure:

scheduledreports/<report directory>/<report name>/<YYYYMMDDHH>
