Build-in scheduler
A built-in reporting scheduler is a feature that allows users to schedule and automate the generation and delivery of reports at specified intervals.
Instead of manually running and distributing reports, the reporting scheduler automates the process, saving time and ensuring timely delivery of information.
Schedule your reports at a specific time or on a continuous basis at intervals of hours, days, weeks or months.
This enables you to streamline your reporting process, automate routine tasks, and receive up-to-date information at the intervals that best suit your operational needs.

True Last Logon
In Active Directory Reports, the "True Last Logon" refers to the most recent logon time of a user account or computer object. It represents the actual last logon event recorded in the Active Directory database, taking into account the replication delay between domain controllers. It includes not replicated attributes like lastLogon, badPasswordTime, badPwdCount, logonCount and whenChanged. The "True locked out" User report is also based on domain lockout policy.
