   • Application: Select the applications for which you want to schedule the report. The applications are listed with their data source inside the parentheses.
   • Who - Users Tracked: Select the users you want included and excluded from the report.
     • Included Users: Select the users for whom you want to view the activity or inactivity report.
       • All: Select this option to include all your organization's users in the report.

       • Apply Exclusions: Select one or both of the following options:

         Any modification to the exclusion list affects all the scheduled reports where Exclusion List is applied. To exclude report-specific users, Zscaler recommends enabling the Custom option and selecting users and departments.
