Configuring reporting preferences

Administrator Help | TRITON AP-EMAIL | Version 8.2.x

Reporting preference settings determine how a scheduled report is distributed for review. You can also specify how long to retain a scheduled report and how much warning administrators receive before a report is deleted.

When reporting preferences settings are made on 1 appliance, they are applied to all the appliances in your network.

Use the Settings > Reporting > Preferences page to provide information used to distribute completed scheduled reports via email. Also define how long scheduled presentation reports are stored before they are deleted automatically, and how far in advance to warn administrators that reports are due to be deleted.

Enter the email address to appear in the From field when scheduled reports are distributed via email.

Enter the SMTP server IP address or name for the email server used to distribute scheduled reports via email.

Use the Store reports for drop-down list to indicate how long scheduled reports are stored on the email management server (default is 5 days).

Note that as you increase the length of time that reports are stored, you affect the amount of disk space required on the email management server. This machine is not an appropriate location for a long-term reporting archive.


	Note If you reduce the report storage time after you have started to generate reports, stored reports that exceed this interval will be automatically deleted.

Use the Give administrators this much warning before a scheduled report is deleted drop-down list to indicate how much warning (from 1 - 5 days) an administrator should have before a report is deleted (default is 3 days).

The warning is intended to give administrators time to archive important reports in an appropriate location before they are deleted from the email management server.
