Schedule report runs

 

Report owners can schedule automatic generation of user-defined reports. The report can be scheduled to run daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly. Schedule report results will be saved and can be retrieved later, or can be optionally e-mailed.

Users with run permissions will be able to retrieve the generated reports. Report owners can schedule generation of the report.
