  3. Go to its Assigned Objects > Device Groups node.
  4. Click Assign Device Group link.png.
  5. Select a device group from the window.
  6. Click OK to confirm the assignment and close the window.
     The device group will be added to the table of assigned device groups.
  7. Then go back to the report in the left window pane.
  8. Click Generate Report report_generate.png.
  9. A confirmation window appears, click Yes to confirm.
     The report will be created immediately using the current data in the database concerning the assigned device group.
  10. To view the newly generated report click View Last Result lastpreview.png.
  11. Click No in the appearing pop-up window.

A new browser window or tab opens and displays the report.
