# Save Reports and Schedule Delivery
Many of Verkada’s Access Control users often log in to Verkada Command and run the same report on a monthly, weekly, or (sometimes) daily basis. Some of these reports have very specific filters that are acceptable to set on on- off queries, but can be frustrating to log in and set on a reoccurring basis.
## Create and schedule report filters
To solve this problem, Verkada has a *Scheduled Report* feature. Access Admins can create report filters in the **Access Control** homepage > **Report** tab, and then save these filters as a *saved report*.
### Benefits
* An admin can return and easily re-run the report without having to reset the filters.
* These saved reports can be turned into comma-separated value (CSV) files and be automatically emailed to a specified list of recipients.
* These emails can be scheduled daily, weekly, or monthly.
### How it works
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**Navigate to the Access Control homepage and on the left side, select the Reports icon.**
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
**Select your preferred filters and click Save Report.**
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
**On the *****Save Report***** dialog, type a Report Name (required) and a description (optional), and click Save. Both can be edited after the creation of the saved report.**
Once the report is saved, the reports page loads. The left pane contains some metadata attached to the saved report. The right pane is the report itself.\
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
**At the top right, click Schedule to schedule these reports.**
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
**Choose the schedule frequency for your saved reports: *****Daily*****, *****Weekly*****, or *****Monthly*****.**
\
**Example**: The *Daily* frequency requires a specific time and timezone.
\
**Example**: The *Weekly* option allows for selecting the days of the week you want to send the report. This example has Sunday (S), Tuesday (T), and Friday (F) selected.
**Example**: The *Monthly* option allows you to choose specific date of the month or the week number/weekday.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
**Choose the recipients of your scheduled report. You can specify both individual users or access groups.**
\
**Example**: User and group specified
\
You should see your new saved report in the **Saved Reports** tab.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
## Duplicate an existing report
To make slight changes to an existing report, but keep existing filters (**not the schedule**), you can easily duplicate the filters.
To do so, at the top right, click the ellipsis (…) icon and select **Duplicate**.
