Configuring Global Settings (System Configuration)

There are several global settings available on the System Configuration page that you can set to manage Enterprise Reporter.

Each user of Report Manager can configure the amount of logging information that is collected from each Report Manager computer. Quest recommends using the default setting of Debug to collect as much information as possible. The following logging levels are available:

There are many communication channels in Enterprise Reporter, involving different sets of credentials. You can manage credentials for use throughout the system using the Credential Manager. For more information, see Using the Credential Manager .

You can increase the timeouts for the Enterprise Reporter server. Connection Timeout controls how long the server has to establish a connection to the database, the Command Timeout controls the amount of time available for processing a command on the database, and the Report Command Timeout controls the amount of time allowed for report generation.

For more information, see Troubleshooting Connection Timeouts .

If you are a reporting administrator, you can configure default settings for sending email. Setting default email settings makes it easier for reporting users to set up delivery of reports by email.

You can either configure a default SMTP server or, for OAuth2 authentication, you can configure Exchange Online. For Exchange Online, you must register an app for Enterprise Reporter in the Microsoft Azure portal. For more information about default email settings, see Configuring a Default Email Server .

Enterprise Reporter can be configured to bypass the login screen. This eliminates the need to enter the server and port information.

Optionally, enable Show the login dialog at startup.

Report administrators can configure a custom icon for report headers. There is an option for all new reports to use the icon automatically. Reports that have custom layouts may need to have their layout adjusted to accommodate the custom icon. For more information, see Changing the report icon .

You can configure Enterprise Reporter to save your favorite parameter values within each report type. Your favorites can then be loaded when running reports that contain these parameters.

For more information, see how To enter a parameter value .

Enterprise Reporter can be configured to display or suppress a login notification indicating that the Enterprise Reporter server has unexpectedly restarted since the last login.

1
On the System Configuration page, click Manage server error notification.
2
Select Do not show server restarted error to suppress the notification.

SSRS is a cross product online reporting platform. Once SSRS is deployed, you can configure Enterprise Reporter to enable publishing. Reports can then be published, allowing users to generate reports using a web browser instead of the Report Manager. For more information, see Configuring SSRS .
