One Identity Manager provides several reports that present information about objects and their relations to other objects in the One Identity Manager database. For example, there are reports about employees and their user accounts, company structures, resources, and system entitlements, attestation, and compliance rule violations integrated into One Identity Manager. Identification, analysis, and summaries of relevant data are supported with the help of these reports.
Web Portal users request subscribable reports and configure their own personal report subscriptions. The reports are delivered to Web Portal users by email as specified in a personally configured schedule.
NOTE: Prerequisite for the using report subscriptions in One Identity Manager is the installation of the Report Subscription Module. For more information about installing, see the One Identity Manager Installation Guide.
The One Identity Manager components for report subscriptions are available when the QER | RPS configuration parameter is set.
-
In the Designer, check if the configuration parameter is set. Otherwise, set the configuration parameter and compile the database.
NOTE: If you disable the configuration parameter at a later date, model components and scripts that are not longer required, are disabled. SQL procedures and triggers are still carried out. For more information about the behavior of preprocessor relevant configuration parameters and conditional compiling, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.
-
Other configuration parameters are installed when the module is installed. Check the configuration parameters and modify them as necessary to suit your requirements.

Reports in the Report Editor
Create and edit reports in the Report Editor. Predefined reports are supplied with the One Identity Manager by default. You can also send reports to specified email addresses using scheduled subscriptions. You can create reports for the current state or over a specified period (change history). You can set up several subscribable reports for each report. You can also view reports using One Identity Manager administration tools, for example, the Manager.
Subscribable reports in the Manager
Set up and edit subscribable reports n the Manager. When you set up a subscribable report, enter the underlying report, either a default report or a custom report created with the Report Editor. Assign subscribable reports to employees through company organizations or the IT Shop. Web Portal users can request subscribable reports and configure their own personal report subscriptions.
Report subscriptions in the Web Portal
Web Portal users request subscribable reports and configure their own personal report subscriptions. When Web Portal users set up a subscribable report, they enter the underlying report. The reports are delivered to Web Portal users by email as specified in a personally configured schedule.
The report subscriptions and schedules are shown in the Manager where any technical problems can be solved.
