The overview tab shows the Label Name, who created the report, any notes about the labels, as well as selections to Favorite, Share, Schedule, and Notify.

Notes. You can provide general usage notes about the label here (e.g. Label created for Marjorie - Run daily!).

You can select Once, Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Yearly from this drop-down menu. Use the Around dropdown to choose a general time for your labels to run.

Save to

Alexandria can save finished labels to an FTP server. These options allow you to specify the (secure) FTP server address and uername/password credentials.

Protocol. If you'd like a more secure transmission that hides the username/password and encrypts the file content, FTP can be secured with SSL/TLS (i.e. “ftps://”). Be aware that the name “Secure FTP” can be confusing because it refers to two completely different protocols: “SFTP” and “FTPS”. Whenever the term Secure FTP is used, it is necessary to specify whether the SSH-based or SSL-based file transfer protocol is meant. Alexandria supports FTPS; the SSL-based file transfer protocol.

Host. Enter the host name or IP address of the FTP server without the URL protocol. For example, myserveraddress.com. Don't worry about including the URL protocol/scheme (e.g. “ftp://”) as this is automatically appended before the host name depending on your Protocol selection (above).

Port. While FTP typically runs over TCP port 21, FTPS (SSL/TLS) typically runs over port 21 or port 990. If you don't have permission to open multiple ports, both unencrypted FTP and encrypted FTPS will run over port 21.

Path. Enter the full path including directories and filename, such as /directory/subdirectory/filename.txt

Username and Password. Enter your FTP login credentials. If your FTP server is Provide a clear-text authentication and sign-in protocol in the form of a username and password. If your FTP server is configured to allow it, you can connect anonymously without having to enter anything
