Reports let you see information about your library at a glance, and help you identify trends and changes over time. You can manually generate reports as needed. In addition, if the advanced reporting options feature is licensed for your library, tThe LMC can automatically generate reports and e-mail them to designated recipients at specified times.
NOTE:
The Advanced reporting feature is available via remote access only.
The LMC can automatically generate and e-mail the Events Report.
• Drive Utilization Report
• Events Report
To automatically generate reports, set up one or more scheduled jobs using advanced reporting options. You can specify when and how often the report is generated, what report templates are used, and which e-mail recipients receive the report. You can also edit and delete scheduled jobs.
