+There are two types of time period in the Repeat Type: _Every_ TimePeriod and _Alert_ TimePeriod. _Every_ will run the report every specified time period, and produce an export even if there are no results to display. This means that you may get a scheduled report email with no results, if there are no results to be displayed. _Alert_ will run the report but *only* email output to specified recipients if there are results - a report which returns 0 records will not send anything to recipients.
