Prerequisites

In case you want to send the report from the console, you need to have an email address configured and a working SMTP setup configured on the console.

Note: you can also run reports manually without sending it.

To generate the report automatically, choose the scheduling options.

If you have a configured SMTP server and email addresses for the company admins / reseller admins, you can also specify the recipients of the report and the console will automatically send it on the given schedule.

In the report, you will see an SLA report that shows whether a given entity has been backed up within the required SLA (e.g. in case of a daily report, was a given mailbox backed up during the last 24 hours?). Additionally, you will have a list of mailboxes, Sharepoint sites, Teams group and Onedrives with detailed SLA information.
