View and Manage Library Reports

The Library is a repository of saved reports that you can view within the Ipswitch Analytics interface, export and analyze.

A report contains actual data captured from one or more MOVEit servers over a specific period of time.

The list contains only those Library reports for which you have been granted access. Administrators and System Administrators can view, edit and delete all Library reports. Any Creator who has access to a Library report can edit the report's properties (access rights, name, and description), or delete it from the Library.

To add reports to the Report Library:

The Library shows the following information about each report. Click any column header to sort reports in ascending or descending order.

Report Name

The name of the report.

Type

Every report has a type. There are four types of reports:

  • Transfer: Transfer templates capture transfer upload and download data for MOVEit Transfer and MOVEit Automation, including transfers from ad-hoc and mobile. Transfer templates are also used for data from Microsoft Exchange support for Ipswitch Analytics, for file transfers that are based on email attachments.
  • Workflow: Workflow templates capture workflow, task, and step data for MOVEit Automation only.
  • User Audit: User Audit templates capture all actions initiated by a user on MOVEit Transfer and Ipswitch Analytics, which can be used to demonstrate regulatory compliance. User Audit templates show who accessed the system, what they did, and when. User Audit templates do not include system actions, only actions initiated by a user.
    Note: MOVEit Automation file operations are not captured in User Audit reports because tasks are not user-initiated actions.
  • Security: Security templates capture failed login activity and user/IP lockout activity on MOVEit Transfer and Ipswitch Analytics to help you locate suspicious activity (defined as an excessive number of failed access attempts).

To display only one type of report at a time, select a type from the drop-down menu at the top of the table.

Creator

The user who created the template.
