Reports

Note This functionality is available only with the Acronis Backup Advanced license.

A report can include any set of the dashboard widgets. You can use predefined reports or create a custom report.

The reports can be sent via email or downloaded on a schedule. To send the reports via email, ensure that the Email server settings are configured.

If you want to process a report by using third-party software, schedule saving the report in the .xlsx format to a specific folder.

Basic operations with reports

Click Overview > Reports, select a report, and then do one of the following:

• To view a report, click Open.
• To send the report via email, click Send now, specify the email addresses, select the report format, and then click Send.
• To download the report, click Download.

Scheduling a report

1. Select a report, and then click Schedule.
2. Enable the Send a scheduled report switch.
3. Select whether to send the report via email, save it to a folder, or both. Depending on your choice, specify the email addresses, the folder path, or both.
4. Select the report format: .pdf, .xlsx, or both.
5. Select the reporting period: 1 day, 7 days, or 30 days.
6. Select the days and the time when the report will be sent or saved.
7. Click Save.

Exporting and importing the report structure

You can export and import the report structure (the set of widgets and the schedule settings) to a .json file. This may be useful in case of the management server re-installation or for copying the report structure to a different management server.

To export the report structure, select a report, and then click Export.

To import the report structure, click Create report, and then click Import.

Dumping the report data

You can save a dump of the report data to a .csv file. The dump includes all of the report data (without filtering) for a custom time range.

The software generates the data dump on the fly. If you specify a long period of time, this action may take a long time.

To dump the report data

1. Select a report, and then click Open.
2. Click the vertical ellipsis icon in the top-right corner, and then click Dump data.
3. In Location, specify the folder path for the .csv file.
4. In Time range, specify the time range.
5. Click Save.
