6.13 Understanding the GPO Settings Report

The GPO Settings Report is a robust and extremely useful tool within GPA.

  • You can use the GPO Settings Report to maintain hard copies of the settings for each GPO in your organization.

  • If you need to compare two GPOs, you can compare two GPO Settings Reports rather than switch between two GPOs.

  • You can save the GPO Settings Report as an HTML file for future reference by clicking Save Report on the Action menu.

To view the GPO Settings Report, select the GPO in the left pane, and then click the Settings tab in the right pane. GPA displays the report in the right pane.

NOTE:If you make changes to ADMX files in Active Directory on the central store, close and re-open the GPA Console before viewing the GPO Settings Report.
