If this option is enabled, the number of entries displayed in the table with detailed report data does not exceed the specified value.
Report entries are first sorted according to the rules specified in the Fields → Details fields section of the report template properties, and then only the first of the resulting entries are kept. The heading of the table with detailed report data shows the displayed number of entries and the total available number of entries that match other report template settings.
If this option is disabled, the table with detailed report data displays all available entries. We do not recommend that you disable this option. Limiting the number of displayed report entries reduces the load on the database management system (DBMS) and reduces the time required for generating and exporting the report. Some of the reports contain too many entries. If this is the case, you may find it difficult to read and analyze them all. Also, your device may run out of memory while generating such a report and, consequently, you will not be able to view the report.
By default, this option is enabled. The default value is 1000.
Group
Click the Settings button to change the set of client devices for which the report is created. For some types of the reports, the button may be unavailable. The actual settings depend on the settings specified during creation of the report template.
Time interval
Click the Settings button to modify the report period. For some types of the reports, the button may be unavailable. Available values are as follows:
Between the two specified dates
From the specified date to the report creation date
From the report creation date, minus the specified number of days, to the report creation date
If this option is enabled, the report includes the information from the secondary and virtual Administration Servers that are subordinate to the Administration Server for which the report template is created.
Disable this option if you want to view data only from the current Administration Server.
The report includes data from secondary and virtual Administration Servers that are located under the current Administration Server on a nesting level that is less than or equal to the specified value.
The default value is 1. You may want to change this value if you have to retrieve information from secondary Administration Servers located at lower levels in the tree.
Before generating the report, the Administration Server for which the report template is created waits for data from secondary Administration Servers during the specified number of minutes. If no data is received from a secondary Administration Server at the end of this period, the report runs anyway. Instead of the actual data, the report shows data taken from the cache (if the Cache data from secondary Administration Servers option is enabled), or N/A (not available) otherwise.
Secondary Administration Servers regularly transfer data to the Administration Server for which the report template is created. There, the transferred data is stored in the cache.
If the current Administration Server cannot receive data from a secondary Administration Server while generating the report, the report shows data taken from the cache. The date when the data was transferred to the cache is also displayed.
Enabling this option allows you to view the information from secondary Administration Servers even if the up-to-date data cannot be retrieved. However, the displayed data can be obsolete.
Secondary Administration Servers at regular intervals transfer data to the Administration Server for which the report template is created. You can specify this period in hours. If you specify 0 hours, data is transferred only when the report is generated.
In the generated report, the table with detailed report data includes data from secondary Administration Servers of the Administration Server for which the report template is created.
Enabling this option slows the report generation and increases traffic between Administration Servers. However, you can view all data in one report.
Instead of enabling this option, you may want to analyze detailed report data to detect a faulty secondary Administration Server, and then generate the same report only for that faulty Administration Server.
By default, this option is disabled.
Fields tab
Select the fields that will be displayed in the report, and use the Move up button and Move down button to change the order of these fields. Use the Add button or Edit button to specify whether the information in the report must be sorted and filtered by each of the fields.
In the Filters of Details fields section, you can also click the Convert filters button to start using the extended filtering format. This format enables you to combine filtering conditions specified in various fields by using the logical OR operation. After you click the button, the Convert filters panel opens on the right. Click the Convert filters button to confirm conversion. You can now define a converted filter with conditions from the Details fields section that are applied by using the logical OR operation.
Conversion of a report to the format supporting complex filtering conditions will make the report incompatible with the previous versions of Kaspersky Security Center (11 and earlier). Also, the converted report will not contain any data from secondary Administration Servers running such incompatible versions.
Click Save to save the changes.
Close the Editing report <Report name> window.
The updated report template appears in the list of report templates.
