Monthly Reports Schedule Missing

Hi Luk,

You can find the report scheduling by navigating through the options:

• Reports
• Settings
• Report Scheduling

You can configure the Email Frequency to Weekly or Daily.

Hope that helps :)

Thank you Sachin,

but this does not help. On XG should be possible to send reports Daily, Weekly and Monthly. This is available on UTM. Also I do not want to give to non-technical users access to XG only to generate itself monthly reports. This is a basic feature.

Hi Luk,

In XG, monthly report notification cannot be configured but I personally feel that weekly reporting does the job. Reviewing report(s) on weekly basis will be easier than reviewing it on monthly basis.  

But if you still feel that the requirement is necessary, please raise a feature request here:

Thank you Sachin. It not a "feeling".. it is a basic feature that UTM had and used a lot on my customers.

I'm going to have to agree with Luk on this one.  There are many use cases where reviewing reports on a monthly basis is preferable to reviewing it weekly.  For instance, I like to know how much data my users have consumed in a month since this is how I'm billed....monthly.  It doesn't seem like it would be that big of a deal to have already added this feature especially given this is already present on UTM.

I'm shocked at the number of seemingly basic UTM features that are missing on XG, including the ability to archive the reports on the device itself like on UTM.  I have come to miss many of these "basic" features I had grown accustomed to on UTM.  I think I'll also feature request monthly reports and report archiving. 

Thanks

Thank you Corey. Vote the feature request I have opened.
