Admin users and Support users can view reports in Portal that provide information about backups, vault space usage, and activities in a site. For information about available reports, see Portal report descriptions.
Each report has a default view, which shows data for all protected computers and environments in a site. An Admin user or Support user can change the report date range, specify which data columns and records to show, and save the resulting report as a customized view. Admin users and Support users can view default report views and any customized report views that have been saved in their sites.
Note: You cannot view the Daily Status Report in Portal; you can only schedule it to run. See Schedule the Daily Status Report.
To view a report:
1. When signed in as an Admin user or Support user, click Reports on the navigation bar.
The Reports page lists available reports. Default and customized views of each report appear under the report name.
If you are signed in as a Support user, and the Support Dashboard appears on the Reports page, select a site. See View reports as a Support user.
Note: If an error message appears on the Reports page, short names might not be entered for the site. Short names are used to extract report data, and must be added by a Super user. See Add a short name for a site.
