29.2 System events report

The System Events report allows you to generate a user-defined report by completing one or more fields on the Report Security Events form. For example, you might want to display all events for a particular person or security device on a given date.

Note: All times are displayed in UTC.

To run a System Events report:

1. From the Reports category, select System Events to display the Report Security Events form.

   You can also launch this workflow from the Additional Reporting section of the More category in the MyID Operator Client. See the Using Additional Reporting workflows section in the MyID Operator Client guide for details.

   The Report Security Events form allows you to specify the information to be included in the Selected Events table. For example, you might want to display all events between two particular dates. To customize the listing, complete the form as appropriate.

   Note: To move the cursor to the next field, press TAB, not ENTER (pressing ENTER has the same effect as choosing Search).

   To return all fields to their original values, select Reset.

2. Complete this form as appropriate and select Search.

   A list of matching events is displayed in the Selected Events table at the bottom of the screen.

3. To print the report, click the print button.
4. To save the report, select XML, CSV, or Excel to select the format, then click the save button.

29.2.1 Archived system events

You can set up MyID to archive the contents of the system events table in the MyID database periodically in a similar way to archiving the Audit table – see the Archiving the System Events section in the Advanced Configuration Guide for details of setting up an archive database for these purposes
