After you save your scheduled report, it shows in the Scheduled reports list, accessed from Settings > Scheduler. From there you can edit schedule settings, pause or delete the scheduled report.

The report is then generated the specified time. After the report is generated, you will receive a notification (such as an email) notifying you that it is ready to download and a link to the download location in the Hybrid Cloud Console.
