Run the reports you want and export them

Once data is collected, you can run reports against it. When you run a report, it returns data based on the most recent data collected by the discoveries, the selected fields, and any parameter values you enter. Some reports may have required parameters; in this case, the report will not run unless you enter valid parameter values.

To produce the requested information, you must run three reports that are included in Enterprise Reporter:

•
Domain Groups — shows all the groups in the domain.
•
Domain Groups and Members — shows the members of all groups in the selected domain.
•
Domain Users — shows all the users in the domain

Once you have run a report, you can export it to the Excel format.

To run each report
1
Open the Report Manager by selecting Start | Quest | Report Manager.
2
In the connection dialog box, enter the name of the computer where the server is hosted and click Log In.
3
On the Report tab, expand Report Library | Active Directory and select your first report, for example Domain Groups.
4
In the Include the following domains parameter, type the domain name, and click Add.
You also can click Search, locate and add the domain, and click OK.
5
Click Run Report.
The report appears in a new window. Depending on the amount of data, it may take a few minutes to generate.
6
On the tool bar, click the Export To drop-down arrow, and choose XLS (older versions of Excel) or XLSX (Excel 2007 and later).
7
In the Export Options dialog box, click OK.
8
In the Save As dialog box, select a location for the report, and change the name if desired.
9
Click Save.
10
Click Yes to view the report in Excel.
You can now use the spreadsheet as needed to perform pre- and post-migration analysis.

You can repeat this process for the other two reports. Once you have completed the migration, you can create a new discovery to run against the new domain, and ensure that the migration was successful.

Manage Compliance

If you are required to regularly show compliance with corporate or regulatory security requirements, Enterprise Reporter can be of great assistance by automatically gathering information and reporting on it.

Scenario

At the beginning of each month, you must deliver a report that shows that users who have been inactive for three months have their accounts disabled, in line with your corporate security policy. You are going to use two reports to do this: one report for yourself, in order to identify accounts that are not compliant, and one report that is sent to the stakeholders showing compliance. You will automate the delivery of the monthly report to ensure it is always on time. You must take the following steps:

1
Modify an Existing Report
2
Scheduling the Report
3
Scheduling Report Delivery to Recipients

Modify 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
In the My Report container, select the Domain Users without Recent Logons report, and click Edit Report.
2
Change the report name to Domain Users to be Disabled.
3
Change the report description to Shows users in the selected domains who have not logged on in the past 90 days and whose accounts are still enabled.
4
Select the Fields tab.
5
In the Selected Fields list, select Is Locked and Number of Logons, and click Remove.
A warning dialog box appears, indicating that the report layout needs to be updated. Click Yes.
You could skip this step, however your report will be more usable if it contains only the required information.
6
Select the Parameters tab.
7
Click +Add.
8
Set This parameter is: to Hidden.
9
Set Select the field to associate with this parameter: to IsDisabled.
10
Set the operator to Equals and the value to No.
11
Click OK.
Leave the dialog box open so you can modify the layout.
To modify the report layout
1
In the Edit Report dialog box, click the Layout tab.
2
Click Edit.
3
In the detailHeader row of the report layout, right-click Number of Logons, and select Delete then Cell.
4
Repeat for IsDisabled and IsLocked.
5
Repeat for all fields in the detailBand row of the report layout except Account Name and Last Logon (Domain User).
6
Click the Preview tab below the report to ensure the new layout it is accurate:
7
Click OK to close the Edit Report dialog box.
8
Click OK to close the Edit Report Definition dialog box, and finish editing the report.
To run the report and save the parameter values for future report runs
1
If necessary, in the My Reports container, select the Domain Users to be Disabled report.
2
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.
3
In the Users not logged on in the last (days) parameter, change the number of days to 90.
4
To make these the default parameter values, click Save parameters as default, and click OK in the confirmation dialog box.
5
Click Run report.

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.

Schedule 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.
