Automated Reporting

Did you know that you can automate AdSystem’s reporting feature?  You can receive reports of what is happening in AdSystem without needing to log into the program.  This feature helps both frequent and infrequent users to stay up-to-date on activity in AdSystem without having to constantly log in and check AdSystem for updates.  Auto Reporting sends reports via email on a specified interval.

What is Auto Reporting?

Auto Reporting is part of AdSystem’s integrated reporting feature.  It can be accessed through the reporting menu.  It gives you the option of choosing from many popular reports to be sent directly to an email inbox.  You select a report to use, who will receive it, the time of day and starting date for the report to be sent, and then on what interval they will receive it.  You can choose to have the report sent on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis as well as at the beginning or end of each month.  This is a great tool for keeping you and your team up-to-date on recent activity with your clients.

How do I use it?

First, let’s review using non-automated reports.  Reports are accessed in the toolbar of AdSystem.  You will find various different classes and reports available.  To run a non-automated report, select it and click run to configure it.

To learn about the differences in running AutoReports vs non-automated reports, please see the following video:
