Enterprise Reporter 3.5 - What's New

New Discovery Options and Changes

Several discoveries have new collection options to improve the ability to fine tune the information being collected.

The following new options have been added to all discoveries.

Save discovery errors

A Save button has been added to the discovery errors page allowing errors to be saved in a CSV or text file.

The following changes are made to cloud discoveries.

Change to workflow for creating discoveries for cloud discoveries (Azure Active Directory, Azure Resource, Exchange Online, Microsoft Teams, OneDrive, and SharePoint Online).

Changed the workflow for creating cloud discoveries so you must configure the tenant app before specifying credentials. This change allows Enterprise Reporter to ensure that the credentials are authorized for the specified tenant, eliminating discovery failures due to credentials being used that are not authorized for the tenant.

After you upgrade to Enterprise Reporter 3.5, you must reconfigure the tenant app for the existing cloud discovery types with the exception of Exchange Online.

Select available domain controllers

DevExpress has been upgraded to v19.2.5. All Enterprise Reporter library reports have been converted to use expression binding instead of standard data binding as part of this upgrade. Any report in the My Reports folder of the Report Manager will only be converted to use expression binding if the report is edited with the Report Manager.

When installing a node on a new computer, there is now an option to Specify an alternate credential for Node service deployment. The account must have permissions to copy files in the Admin$ share folder and to install and run services.

When logging in to the Enterprise Reporter Configuration Manager or the Enterprise Reporter Report Manager, there is now an option to suppress the login page so that the same server and port is always used. This option can also be managed on the System Configuration page of each console.

When extending attributes, an error message is displayed for any attribute that cannot be collected. Use the error message to troubleshoot any issues with collecting the attribute before attempting to extend the attribute again.
