Introduction

Using the Private Alerts and Reports page on the Administration Tasks tab, administrators can disable alert notifications and scheduled reports that were created under a user’s Private folder. This feature allows administrators to clean up orphaned alerts and reports in all user’s private folders.

* 
NOTE: Authorization to use the administration tasks on the Administration Tasks tab is defined using the Application User Interface page. To disable private alerts/reports using the Private Alerts and Reports page, you must be assigned to a role that contains the View Private Alerts and Reports, Disable Alert and Disable Report operations. If you are denied access to the tasks on this page, see Change Auditor User Interface Authorization.

 

Private Alerts and Reports page

The Private Alerts and Reports page is displayed when Private Alerts and Reports is selected from the Configuration task list in the navigation pane of the Administration Tasks tab and displays a list of all private search queries where alerting and/or reporting has been enabled and configured. From this page, administrators with the proper permissions can disable valid alerts and reports from a user’s private folder.

For each private alert/report found, the following information is displayed:

Name
Displays the name assigned to the search query when it was created.
Folder
Displays the full folder path where the search query was saved.
Owner
Displays the name of the owner who created the private alert/report.
Alert
Indicates whether an alert has been enabled for the search query. Valid entries for this field are:
•
Enabled - which means that alerting is enabled for the search query and that at least one transport method is enabled.
•
Disabled - which means that the alert is disabled for the search query; however at least one transport method is still enabled.
Report
Indicates whether reporting had been enabled for the search query. Valid entries for this field are:
•
Enabled - which means reporting is enabled for the search query and a report will be sent to the specified recipients as defined on the Report tab.
•
Disabled - which means previously enabled reporting has now been disabled for the search query.
Alert To
Displays the email address of any recipients specified to receive an alert email notification (SMTP).
Alert Cc
Displays the email address of any ‘carbon copy’ recipients specified to receive an alert email notification.
Alert Bcc
Displays the email address of any ‘blind carbon copy’ recipients specified to receive an alert email notification.

Disable private alerts and reports

To disable a private alert or report:
1
Open the Administration Tasks tab and click Configuration.
2
Select Private Alerts and Reports from the task list.
3
On the Private Alerts and Reports page use one of the following methods to disable a private alert/report:
•
Select the alert/report to be disabled and click the appropriate tool bar button: Disable Alert or Disable Report.
•
Select the alert/report to be disabled, right-click and select the appropriate option: Disable Alert or Disable Report.
The disabled status also appears on the Searches page for the selected search query. The user can use the commands on the Searches page to re-enable alerting/reporting for a private search query.

 

Generate and Schedule Reports

•
Schedule reports for distribution
•
Launch Report Designer
•
Publish reports
•
Print or save a page’s contents

Presenting audited information in a professional, concise, and effective way is as critical as gathering the data. You can schedule reports to be sent through email (using the same SMTP configuration defined for alerts), published to Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services (SRS) or send to a shared folder.

Change Auditor’s reporting allows you to specify who can see the report and define which data to include. For example, administrators could define reports that highlight how many times a particular event or category of events occurred in the last 30 days or provide a more detailed accounting to include who made the changes, how many times, and the before and after values associated with those changes.
