View Reports

The View Reports page shows a list of reports that are currently running or those that have been generated and are ready for review. Select a report title to open and view the report in a new window.

Note: To enhance storage utilization and maximize report performance, saved reports are only available for a maximum of 30 days. SkillSoft makes every effort to ensure that saved reports are always available during this window; however, unforeseen maintenance may result in a loss of saved reports. As a result, SkillSoft strongly recommends that you download critical reports as soon as they are generated.

  1. Select the View Reports link on the Reports menu.
  2. Select the link for the report you want to view. Or, select the button next to a report and select the View Report link from within Report Details window. The report will now appear in a separate window.
