Can you delete a predefined report?

In Fortinet FortiAnalyzer, predefined reports are integral components of the system designed to provide essential insights and analytics based on the collected data. These predefined reports are typically developed and maintained by Fortinet, ensuring that they comply with the standard reporting requirements and formats that administrators and security personnel need.

The inability to delete these predefined reports ensures consistency and stability within the reporting framework of the platform. Administrators can customize, schedule, or modify these reports to fit specific needs, but the foundational elements remain intact to avoid disruption in analytics and data processing.

This design choice protects the integrity of the reporting system and guarantees that users have access to a consistent set of baseline reports that cover a range of security and operational metrics. Consequently, while users can work with these reports in various ways—like editing or scheduling—removing them entirely from the system is not an option.
