||
2.Select the required Scheduled Report Type from the Report Type: pull-down list in the Report Settings section of the window (see above). 3.Enter a suitable title for the Report in the Report User Title: box. 4.Select a date and time for the first Report run using the First Report Run: controls. This should be later today or any time in the future. 5.Specify a Report Interval if required. This is the length of time between repeated runs of the Report. For example an interval of one day would give daily Reports. You don’t have to specify a Report Interval, this would give a ‘one off’ Report. 6.Use the Report Start: and Report End: controls to specify the time span for the Report. This would typically be dates in the past, but could be dates in the future (although if, for example you specified a start date one week in the future and end date two weeks in the future you would have to wait 2 weeks before you saw a Report).
7.Having set up the Report dates, we now need to specify the Sensor data that we wish to report on. Click the Sensors tab, then click Add Sensors to give the Add Sensors dialog box. 8.Select the Zone that contains the sensors you wish to report on from the Zone Name pull-down list. The Source List becomes populated with the sensors in the selected Zone. 9.Select a sensor in the Source List that you wish to report on, and select to transfer it to the Destination List. To transfer all sensors in a single operation click . 10.When satisfied with your selections, select Submit. 11.Now we need to specify a list of Users (System Contacts) that the Report will be emailed to. Click the System Contacts tab, then click Add Sensors to give the Add Contacts dialog box. 12.Populate the Destination List for System Contacts using the same methods that you used to populate the Destination List for Sensors (see step 9 above). When satisfied with your selections click Submit. 13.If any External Contacts have been set up and you wish to send the Report to them, select the External Contacts tab and populate and Submit it in the same way as for System Contacts. 14.When satisfied with all of your Report Settings, select Submit or Submit and Run Now under the Add Scheduled Report Settings banner. Submit and Run Now button is used to generate reports immediately; however some delay can be expected if a large report is submitted.
