Getting started with Device reports

Your Absolute account includes a set of predefined reports that show detailed system and hardware information about your devices. These reports belong to the Device category and are indicated by the icon. You can access them from Absolute view of the Reports page or the Device category.

Each report includes its own default set of filters and columns that determine the information included in the report. If these default settings don't suit your needs, you can update the report's filters, columns, and sort order and then do either of the following:

• Use the Save report option to save your changes to the predefined report. This custom view of the report persists until you revert to the report's default settings.
• Use the Save as report option to save your changes to a new report. The report is automatically added to the My Reports view of the Reports page, and to the report category of the parent report.

Note that if you navigate away from a predefined report without saving your changes in one of the above ways, the report reverts to its default view the next time you open it.
