Report: Choose an existing report you wish to schedule.

If you select Specific Zones, select the zones the report should include. Be careful not to share a report of a zone to a team that is not authorized to view that zone.
Policy : Select the compliance policy that this report is applicable to.
The available drop-down filters vary depending on the type of report selected. For example, in most reports, the Zones filter is optional. However, if you select the Compliance Readiness Report, both the Zone and Policy filters become mandatory.
