By default, the reports are never deleted.
- Check for report generation every x minutes: set the periodicity check of the periodic reports to generate.
Example: if you set the periodicity to 60, then the EAM controller will check every 60 minutes if periodic reports must be generated. If a periodic report should have been generated within these 60 minutes, then the console will execute the generation of this report.

Managing Report Models
Subject
Depending on your needs, you can import report models (see Importing a report model hereunder) to diversify your available report types or just update your existing reports.
You can also delete report models (see Deleting a report model hereunder).
Description
The report models are divided into 4 categories:
- Activity: reports that help supervise the solution.
- Snapshot: reports that resume the current policy.
- Risk: reports that detect possible anomalies.
- Surveillance: reports that display the activity of the users, applications or workstations.
To view the list of report models provided by One Identity as well as their parameters, see Report Models and Parameters List.
Before starting
- To manage the PDF reports models, you must own the following rights:
- Reporting: Administration: to manage the configuration of the report generation requests.
- Reporting: Model import: to authorize the administrators to import new report models or to update the existing ones.
- Reporting: Model deletion: to authorize the administrators to delete the report models.
- You have placed the new report models or the updates provided by the One Identity Expertise Center in the directory dedicated to its category under C:\Program Files\Common Files\One Identity\IAR\exports\models\archives\<DBTYPE>\UAS\<Category>, where DBTYPE is the database type used by the controller and Category the name of the model category to import.
For example, to update the report model on the mobile devices of the Snapshot category, you must place the archive containing the Mobiles.zip model in the C:\Program Files\Common Files\One Identity\IAR\exports\models\archives\MySQL\UAS\Snapshot directory if the database used is MySQL.
