Build and edit a Domains report

It is important to know when your domains are due to expire. Running a Domains report helps you see which domains are expiring so you can revalidate them and get your new certificates without delays.

Building your report can take more than an hour depending on its size. The report will continue to build if you leave the page or log out of CertCentral. You will receive an email notification once it’s available.

1. In your CertCentral account’s sidebar menu, click Reports > Build a report.
2. Select Domains from the reports category list and click Next.
3. From the Include time frame of expiring domains dropdown, select the time frame you want your report to cover.
   Note: When choosing the Custom date option, use the arrows to navigate the months and years you want to include. Then select the days you want included:
   1. All domains
   2. Expires within 7 days
   3. Expires within 30 days
   4. Expires within 60 days
   5. Expires within 90 days
   6. Expires within 120 days
   7. Expires within 180 days
   8. Custom date
4. In the Choose sources section, you can also choose what subaccounts to include, or to exclude them. Click Next.
5. Choose which columns to include in your report. For a Domains report, there are three categories of information: Order details and Certificate details.
   1. Domain information includes details such as domain name, domain ID, the organization name, and others.
   2. Domain validation information concern how domains have been validated. This includes details such as the DCV method, expiration dates for OV and EV certificates, and others.
   3. Subaccount information includes subaccounts’ account ID and container ID.
6. To add or remove columns from your report, toggle each check box for the information you want to include. Otherwise, click Select all to include all categories.
7. Set column order shows the order that the columns will be listed in your report. If you want to reorder your columns, drag and drop them to your preferred placement. You can also click Order alphabetically to alphabetize them.
8. Once you have selected your report criteria, click Next.
9. Now schedule how you want to run your report:
   1. By default, Once is selected. This does not set a schedule, but you will be able to manually run it again when you need to do so, from the main Report library page.
   2. To set a schedule, choose a Weekly or Monthly schedule. Set the day of the week and when you want the last report to run. With this setting, your report does not run immediately, only on the day selected.
10. In Notify additional users, add other administrators you want to notify when the report is ready for download.
11. Choose the file formats for your report, then enter a Report name.
12. When you are finished, click Build report.
