S3 Report Storage
Configure optional secondary storage of reports. The primary storage is still our database.
Report Storage Setup
If another report storage is necessary, the Admin can setup another report storage in Admin Panel > Settings > Configuration > Report Storage.
Field removal from the reports
In order to optimize the capacity of the new storage, the Admin can configure the removal of certain fields of the report to allow only essential data to remain in the database.
The Admin can set the fields to be removed in the Admin Panel > Settings > Configuration > Additional Scan Steps.
