When you select a report type in the Application Virtualization Server Management Console, the window displays a brief description of the selected report. **Note**   Reports are not run automatically; you must run them explicitly to generate output data. The length of time it takes to run a report is determined by the amount of data collected in the data store.   **To run a report** 1. Click the **Reports** node in the navigation pane. 2. Right-click the desired report, and select **Run Report** from the pop-up menu. 3. The pages you must complete to run a report vary depending on the type of report. To run a report, complete the appropriate pages from the following list: 1. Select a **Report Period** radio button to specify the frequency for running the report. 2. Specify the start date and end date in the respective fields to determine the range of dates included in the report. You can enter these dates manually or use the calendar function and select the dates. 3. Select the **Server**, **Server Group**, or **Enterprise** radio button, and then select the server group and server from the corresponding drop-down list and field as enabled. 4. Select the desired application from the drop-down list of applications. 4. Click **Finish**. ## Related topics [Application Virtualization Report Types](application-virtualization-report-types.md) [How to Create a Report](how-to-create-a-reportserver.md) [How to Delete a Report](how-to-delete-a-reportserver.md) [How to Export a Report](how-to-export-a-reportserver.md) [How to Print a Report](how-to-print-a-reportserver.md)
