Automated client reporting

Automated client reporting means you set a report's schedule, recipients, and sender once — then Oviond renders it fresh and emails it on every cycle, with no manual rebuild.

An Oviond automation scheduling a marketing performance summary to a client's recipients on a monthly sending frequency.

Why automated client reporting

Reporting day stops being a task

Recurring reporting is mostly repetition. An automation does the repeating.

Set the cadence once

Choose daily, weekly, or monthly delivery, pick the day and the send time, and the next run is scheduled for you.

Fresh data on every run

The reporting period is stored as a preset, so a monthly report set to last month always covers the most recent complete month.

Nothing left to remember

Recipients, sender, and email template all live on the automation, so no one has to chase the send.

How it works

How scheduled delivery works

An automation ties one report to a schedule, a recipient list, a sender address, and an email template. On each run, Oviond renders the report for the configured date range and emails it out.

Oviond checks for due automations every minute, so a run starts shortly after its scheduled time rather than exactly on the second.

Frequency and send time

Daily, weekly with a day of the week, or monthly with a day from 1 to 31. Set the hour and minute, and the schedule is evaluated in your account's timezone.

A date range that re-resolves

The period is saved as a preset such as Last Month and resolved fresh on every run, so the report always covers the right window without anyone editing it.

Recipients and sender

Add one or more recipient addresses and choose the From sender. Senders can sit on your own verified sending domain or on your own SMTP server.

Email templates

Pick a saved template or compose a custom message inline. Placeholders for client name, report name, and date range fill in from the real report, and a custom message is saved as a reusable template.

Test before you trust it

A test send delivers the report immediately, to the saved recipients or a different address. It does not advance the schedule, and it is logged as a Test run so you can tell it from a real delivery.

Pause, resume, and run history

Suspend an automation without losing its configuration, and review every past run — scheduled or test — as Success, Failed, or Skipped, per report or across the whole account.

What changes on reporting day

Three recurring jobs an automation takes off the team.

Rebuilding the same report every month

One automation that renders it fresh on every run.

A calendar reminder to send the report

A schedule that fires whether or not anyone remembers.

Guessing whether a report actually went out

A run history with the status of every send.

What an automation carries with it

The schedule is the easy part. These three decide what lands in the inbox.

Deliver a link or a rendered report

Scheduled email sits alongside live links, embeds, and PDF downloads, so each client can have the format they prefer from the same report.

Scheduled reports go out as yours

Every automated send carries your theme and can leave from your own verified address, so the automation is invisible to the client.

Every metric recalculated, not just resent

Because the report is rendered again on each run, the metrics, filters, goals, and calculated KPIs you configured are recalculated for the new period.

Any of the 70+ marketing data sources Oviond connects can sit inside a scheduled report — paid media, analytics, search, social, email, CRM, and e-commerce.

Automated reporting FAQs

Schedules, senders, test sends, and delivery history — the practical details.

What is automated client reporting?

Automated client reporting is recurring report delivery configured once and run on a schedule. In Oviond an automation holds the report, the frequency, the reporting period, the recipients, the sender, and the email template, and re-renders the report on every run.

How often can Oviond send a report?

Daily, weekly, or monthly. Weekly automations take a day of the week, monthly automations take a day from 1 to 31, and both take a send time evaluated in your account's timezone. Those three frequencies are the full set.

How do I set up an automation?

Open Automations in the sidebar and click New automation, or use the Automations tab inside a report to start with that report selected. Name it, set the frequency and send time, pick the client, report, and date range, then add recipients, a sender, and an email template.

Which period does an automated report cover?

Whichever preset you chose, resolved fresh on every run. A monthly automation set to Last Month always sends the most recent complete month, so the range moves with the calendar on its own.

Can automated reports come from my own email address?

Yes. Choose a sender on your own verified sending domain, or one backed by your own SMTP server. If an automation has no usable sender it is flagged on the Automations list and will not deliver until you set one.

Can I test an automation before it goes live?

Yes, and it is worth doing. A test send renders and emails the report immediately, exactly as a scheduled run would, and you can point it at a different address. It leaves the schedule untouched and is recorded as a Test run in the history.

How do I know a report was actually delivered?

Every run is logged with its source, time, reporting period, and status — Success, Failed, or Skipped. You can review the runs for one report or a single timeline across the whole account.

Can I pause an automation?

Yes. Pausing suspends sending without losing the configuration, and runs that fall due while it is paused are logged as Skipped. Test sends are disabled until you resume it.

Can clients get a PDF as well as an email?

Yes. PDFs are generated on demand from a report's Download tab in A4 or Letter, portrait or landscape, and clients can download one themselves from a shared link when you allow it.

Where to go next

Automation handles the delivery. For the rest, see marketing reporting for the deliverable itself, marketing dashboards for the weeks between sends, the drag-and-drop report builder for building what gets sent, and the reporting API and MCP server to create and schedule automations programmatically.
