Follow these steps:
- Go to Detections > Reports > Scheduled Reports. The Scheduled Reports screen appears.
- Click Add. The "Add Scheduled Report > Step 1: Contents" screen appears.
- Under "Report Details > Step 1 Contents" type a name for the report in the Name field. Type a description (Optional) for the report in the Description field.
- In the Report Content section, select one of the following template types:
- Static Templates: Select one or more of the static templates provided by Trend Micro.
Select a static template from the Report category drop-down. Select the data to display in the report and specify any corresponding parameters.
- Custom Templates: Select one or more custom report templates
Selecting multiple custom templates generates a single report that displays formatted data from all selected templates. For more information about creating custom report templates, check the Online Help article, Adding or Editing Custom Templates.
- Static Templates: Select one or more of the static templates provided by Trend Micro.
- Select the report generation format.
Custom template report formats:
- Adobe PDF format (*.pdf)
- HTML format (*.html)
- XML format (*.xml)
- CSV format (*.csv)
Static template report formats:
- Adobe PDF format (*.pdf)
- Microsoft Word format (*.docx)

- Click Next. The "Edit Scheduled Report > Step 2 Targets" screen appears. Specify targets using one of the following views.
- Product Directory: Select the managed products or folders containing the managed products that provide the report information.
- Tags and filters: Select up to 10 custom tags, filters, or important labels containing the users or endpoints that provide the report information.
- The Tags and filters view is only available for custom report templates.
- Reports generated by a user account only include data from endpoints that the user account is authorized to view. If a user account selects a tag, filter, or importance label containing endpoints that the user account does not have permission to view, then the generated report excludes data from the unauthorized endpoints.
- Editing a tag, filter, or importance label on the User/Endpoint Directory screen also modifies the corresponding tag, filter, or importance label used by log queries and reports. For example, if an endpoint is removed from a custom filter on the User/Endpoint Directory screen, then log queries and generated reports that use the filter will exclude data from the removed endpoint.
- Click Next. The "Edit Scheduled Report > Step 3: Frequency" screen appears.
Specify how often the reports generate:
- Every 'n' days: Reports generate every 1 to 6 days, depending on your selection.
- Weekly: Reports generate weekly on the specified day.
- Bi-weekly: Reports generate every two weeks on the specified day.
- Monthly: Reports generate monthly on the first, 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th, 25th, or the last day of the month
Specify the data range:
- Reports include data up to the Start the schedule time specified below: This means that a report can have up to 23 hours more data contained in the report. While this has a small affect on weekly or monthly reports, this can make a "daily" report with almost two days worth of data depending on the Start schedule time.
- Reports include data up to 23:59:59 of the previous day: This means that data collection for the report stops just before midnight. Reports will be an exact time period (example: Daily reports will be 24 hours) but will not contain the absolute latest data.
Specify when the report schedule starts:
- Immediately: The report schedule starts immediately after enabling the report.
- Start on: The report schedule starts on the date and time specified in the accompanying fields.
