Enterprise Reporter 3.6 - Quick Start Guide

Modifying an Existing Report

You need to modify an existing report to only show accounts that have been inactive for 90 days and are not disabled. You should manually run an appropriate Active Directory discovery right before you run the report to ensure you are getting up to date data. This will allow you to address any issues before your compliance report is sent out. To do this, you must perform the following steps:

1
Copy the report from the Library to My Reports, which is the only container in which you can edit reports.
2
Edit the report to remove unnecessary fields from the report, and to create a hidden parameter to filter disabled accounts.
3
Modify the report layout to remove unnecessary fields.
4
Run the report to identify issues.
To copy the report so you can edit it
1
On the Report tab of the Report Manager, expand Report Library | Active Directory.
2
Locate the Domain Users without Recent Logons report, and drag it into the My Reports container.
To edit the report name, fields, and parameters
1

Your report appears, listing all users who are not in compliance. You can now make any changes you need prior to the sending the compliance report to your stakeholders.

Scheduling the Discovery

In this scenario, the Active Directory collection previously configured collects the necessary data. We will edit it to run on a scheduled basis so that the scheduled reports have up-to-date data. You can also run it manually before you run the report you modified that identifies any compliance issues.

To edit a discovery and create a schedule
1
On the Manage Discoveries page of the Configuration Manager, select the AD - [Domain Name] discovery you created, and click Edit.
- OR -
If you did not create an Active Directory discovery that collects accounts, follow the steps in Create Discoveries to Define the Data Collection , but stop on the Schedule page.
2
If necessary, click the Schedule tab.
3
Click Monthly, and select the last Friday of the month.
4
Click +Add.
5
Click OK if you edited an existing discovery.
- OR -
Click Finish if you created a new discovery.

Scheduling Report Delivery to Recipients

Once the data has been collected, the reports can be generated. Using the Schedule tab of the Report Manager, you can create a schedule that automatically delivers the desired reports to your specified recipients.

To do this, you must:

1
Copy the Domain Users without Recent Logons report to My Reports, the only container from which you can schedule a report.
2
Create a report schedule.
3
Configure your email server.
4
Schedule the report, and provide parameter values.
To copy the report so you can schedule it
1
On the Report tab of the Report Manager, expand Report Library | Active Directory.
2
Locate the Domain Users without Recent Logons report, and drag it into the My Reports container.
If you did not rename the report when you modified an existing report (see Modifying an Existing Report), the report will have a (1) after its name so you can differentiate them.
To create a report schedule
1
In the Report Manager, click the Schedule tab.
2
Click +New Schedule.
3
Name the schedule Compliance Reports.
4
Click Monthly, and select day 1 of the month.
5
Launch the Credential Manager, and add an account that has read access to the database.
6
In the Delivery section, choose a network share where the reports will be delivered.
Ensure the credentials provided in the previous step have write access to this share.
Leave the dialog box open to configure email delivery.
To configure email delivery
1
In the Delivery section of the Create or Edit Schedule dialog box, enable the Send Email option.
2
Click Configure mail server.
3
There are two ways to configure email delivery: SMTP or Exchange Online.
•
If your administrator has configured a default email SMTP server, the fields are filled in.
•
If your administrator has configured email to use Exchange Online, the fields are filled in.
For information about configuring a default server, see “Configuring a Default Email Server” in the Report Manager User Guide.
NOTE: To use Exchange Online, you must register an application for Enterprise Reporter with Microsoft Entra ID, using certificate-based authentication. For more information, see “Registering an Enterprise Reporter Application for Exchange Online Email Delivery” in the Configuration Manager User Guide.
4
Launch the Credential Manager, and select the account used to access the mail server.
If your SMTP email server is configured to accept anonymous connections, you do not need to provide an account.
You can test your connection to ensure the mail server is properly configured.
5
In the From field, type the email address of the sender.
6
In the To field, type the email addresses of the recipients, separated by a comma or semicolon.
7
Click OK.
The schedule card is created.
To schedule a report
1
On the Compliance Reports schedule card, click +Add a report to this schedule.
2
Select Domain Users without Recent Logons, and click OK.
3
Click the Modify Report Parameters icon for the Domain Users without Recent Logons report.
4
In the Report Parameters pane, complete the Parameter Set Name: by typing [Domain Name] Users not logged in for 90 days to identify the parameter values you will use.
5
In the Include the following domains parameter, type the domain name, and click Add.
You can also click Search, locate and add the domain, and click OK.
6
In the Users not logged on in the last (days) parameter, change the number of days to 90.
7
Click Save.

Your report will now run automatically, reporting on the data from your scheduled discovery.

Changing History Reporting

Enterprise Reporter can help you quickly identify changes that have occurred in your environment. If you enable change history, a record of all changes over time is kept. You can then report on these changes, and ensure that required changes have been made, or investigate unwanted changes. You can track changes to:

•
Group membership
•
Active Directory domains
•
Computers
•
NTFS files, folders or shares
•
Registry keys or values
•
SQL servers or databases
Scenario

As part of your job, you are responsible for monitoring changes to critical services. Once a week, you must generate a report to ensure only expected changes are being made. Since collecting change history involves more data, you want to scale up your cluster to handle the increased traffic.

You will need to take the following steps:

•
Add Another Node to a Cluster
•
Enable Change History for the Computer Discovery Type
•
Create and Schedule a Discovery
•
Scheduling the Report
