## How does ScanMail generate centralized report data for multiple servers?

ScanMail retrieves data based on the period specified, regardless of time zone settings. If a server is in a location that has not yet reached the period specified, a value of zero records is received.

| ##### Note For example, it is currently 14:00 GMT+8. A remote server in the GMT+8 time zone queries logs for the period of 13:00 to 14:00 from a server located in the GMT+4 time zone. The server located in the GMT+4 time zone returns no records because the current time is only 10:00.

ScanMail then displays all the data for the specified period collected from the specified servers in a single report. If server A displays 4 log items for the specified period and server B displays 5 log items for the same period, ScanMail displays 9 entries for the period.
