The Report Stats list enables you to view how often each of your Core UI reports is run and how long it takes for the reports to run.

To view report statistics, navigate to All > Reports > Administration > Report Statistics. The admin or report_admin role is required. By default, the Report Statistics list displays all reports that have been run. To view reports that haven't been run, select the context menu icon () and choose Add Unused Reports.
Note:
  • Adding unused reports to this list takes some time, especially if your instance has many reports.
  • The Report Stats list supports a maximum of 500 reports.
The Report Stats list has the following columns:
