Default Description
Blank These fields establish the time period to be covered by the report. These fields are supported for
most report types. When these fields do not appear, the report provides a snapshot of current
status rather than information covering a period of time
Times can be entered in relative or absolute form. A start date of 6 months 3 weeks 5 days 9 hours
ago and an end time of 4 months 2 weeks 1 day ago is valid, as is a start date of 5/5/2008 13:00 and
an end date of 6/6/2008 9:00. Absolute times must be entered in a 24-hour format. Other reports, like
the Inventory Report, give a snapshot picture of the AirWave at the present time.
No When you select Yes, new fields display that allow you to define a specific time for report creation.
The report schedule setting is distinct from the Report Start and Report End fields, as these define
the period of time to be covered by the report.
These Schedule fields establish the time that a report runs, independent of report scope:
 Current Local Time—Displays for reference the time of the AirWave system.
Desired Start Date/Time—Sets the time the report runs, which may often be separate from the

time period covered by the report. This allows you to run a report during less busy hours.
Occurs—Select whether the report is to be run one time, daily, weekly, monthly, or annually.

Depending on the recurrence pattern selected, you get an additional drop-down menu. For
example, if you select a recurrence of monthly, you get an additional drop-down menu that
allows you to pick which day of the month (day 1, day 2, and so forth) the report should run.
By Role This field allows you to display the report either by user role, with the report appearing in User Role
lists on the Reports > Generated page.
Alternatively, this field allows you to display reports by Subject on the Reports > Generated page.
Select Yes to display sender and recipient fields. Enter the Sender Address where marked to
indicate the address that appears in the From field of the emailed report. Enter recipient email
addresses separated by commas when using multiple email addresses.
NOTE: AirWave will not attempt to email a report with an excessively large number of rows in the
detail section.
