  • Click . The Schedule this Report pop-up window will appear:

  • Enter a name for the report in the Scheduled Report Name Field.

  • Next, choose the Output Format from the drop-down, either Excel or PDF.

  • Click the Delivery Method drop-down to choose Email, In System, or both Email and In System.

  • Use the Deliver As drop-down to choose Link or Attachment.
