We don't want to sit in front of the VCM console to get the reports exported. We can schedule them and they can be in our inbox when we login. The patching and compliance reports can also be scheduled to be sent to the security officer to take a look at the infra. As they will be sent automatically, our admins can use this time to fix the actual issues than exporting and sending the reports.
Get a proper name ready for the scheduled report and create machine group against the report that should run. For compliance reports, make sure that a compliance check is already performed so that it can have some data in the report.
To perform this recipe, log in to VCM with admin account and follow the steps:

Check the screenshot from the earlier recipes
Select Run Report(s) on the Job Type page of the wizard.
Provide Name and description You can be creative, as there is a limit of characters...
