About Salesforce Reports
Updated over 4 months ago

Get started with Salesforce Reports.

Purpose

The Druva Cloud Platform Reports provides an intuitive & simplified experience in downloading & managing reports. You can get granular insights into all your product operations through centralized reports.


πŸ“ Note

​Only the Salesforce workload-specific reports are available on the Druva Cloud Platform. Reports containing SaaS App workload data include data specific to Salesforce on the Druva Cloud Platform.


Following changes are made to Salesforce reports on the Druva Cloud Platform console:

Split Reports

  1. The Salesforce Data Archiver and Restore Report is now divided into two separate reports.

    • Salesforce Archival Activity

    • Salesforce Archival Restore Activity Report.

  2. The Salesforce Backup and Restore Report is now divided into two separate reports.

    • Salesforce Backup Activity

    • Salesforce Data Restore Activity Report.

Discontinued/Deprecated Report

  1. Complete Report is no longer available.

Benefits of using Reports

Druva generates a comprehensive set of reports that enable you to perform the following actions:

  • Track the day-to-day backup and restore operations.

  • Monitor the health status of your workloads deployed on the premises and in the cloud.

  • View all data activities, ensuring complete transparency, traceability, and accountability of all the administrators.

  • Record alerts generated for all the workloads.

  • To address business requirements, perform an in-depth analysis of the total credits and storage consumed by your workloads over some time.

  • Determine the storage consumed by specific teams, departments, or remote offices of your organization, assign a dollar value to this storage usage, and forecast the budget.

  • Perform periodic audits to analyze business compliance requirements and potential risks faced by the organization.

Access Privileges for Salesforce

  • Druva cloud administrator, Cloud administrator, and other administrators with View and download reports and view alerts can view and download all reports.

  • Druva cloud administrator, Cloud administrator, and other administrators with the right to Change report schedules can subscribe to all reports, manage subscriptions, and send email reports to other subscribers.

How to use Reports

Last Backup Status Report.png

πŸ“ Note

  • The subscriptions from the Salesforce page and the Druva Cloud Platform page are independent, so if you subscribe at both places, you may receive two emails unless you remove one subscription. Existing Salesforce report subscriptions from the Salesforce page continue to function, and subscribers continue to receive reports in the current format.

  • All reports display report data for the last 30 days by default. The Updated Time page filter allows you to edit the default period if necessary.


You can perform the following actions on every report page.
