How to send yourself a weekly report of upcoming renewals
You can use QLM's scheduled tasks to automatically email yourself all upcoming renewals. To do so:
A. Create a search
Click on the Manage Keys tab.
Click on the Search drop down and select Edit Searches.
Click on Add to add a new search.
Set the Name to: Upcoming Renewals.
Set the SQL field to: SubscriptionExpiryDate > [today_start] and SubscriptionExpiryDate < [today_start + 7]
The search above will return all licenses that are due for renewal in the next 7 days.
Click OK
If you want to get a report of upcoming maintenance plans, change the SubscriptionExpiryDate field above with the MaintenanceRenewalDate field.
B. Create a scheduled task
On the ribbon bar, click on the Tools / Scheduled Tasks
Click on Add to add a new task
Set the Name to: Upcoming Renewals
Select your License Server
In the Search drop down, select the Search we created earlier: Upcoming Renewals
Set the Schedule Run every to: 1 Day starting at xx:yy. Note that this value should match the value you specified in the Search above.
In the Email tab, select the Outlook Profile and the Email account to use
Select Email template: "Daily Activity Report". Note that the format of this report contains the special tag ***qlm_table*** which enables this feature. If the fields in the Daily Activity Report do not meet your needs, you can customize this report as needed, as long as you do not remove the special tag.
