+# Icinga Reporting
+
+Icinga Reporting is the central component for reporting related functionality in the monitoring web frontend and
+framework Icinga Web. The engine allows you to create reports over a specified time period for ad-hoc and scheduled
+generation of reports. Other modules use the provided functionality in order to provide concrete reports.
+
+## Host/Service SLA Reports
+
+With Icinga DB Web there is no additional module required.
+
+If you are still using the monitoring module, please also install the
+[idoreports](https://github.com/Icinga/icingaweb2-module-idoreports) module.

+# Installing Icinga Reporting
 
-## Requirements
+The recommended way to install Icinga Reporting and its dependencies is to use prebuilt packages for all supported
+platforms from our official release repository. Please note that [Icinga Web](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga-web) is
+required and if it is not already set up, it is best to do this first.
 
-* PHP (>= 7.0)
-* Icinga Web 2 (>= 2.9)
-* Icinga Web 2 libraries:
-  * [Icinga PHP Library (ipl)](https://github.com/Icinga/icinga-php-library) (>= 0.12)
-  * [Icinga PHP Thirdparty](https://github.com/Icinga/icinga-php-thirdparty) (>= 0.10)
-* Icinga Web 2 modules:
-  * [Icinga PDF Export](https://github.com/Icinga/icingaweb2-module-pdfexport) (>= 0.10)
-* MySQL / MariaDB or PostgreSQL
-* php-mbstring
+To upgrade an existing Icinga Reporting installation to a newer version, see the [Upgrading](80-Upgrading.md) documentation
+for the necessary steps.

-## Module Installation
-
-1. Install it [like any other module](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga-web-2/latest/doc/08-Modules/#installation).
-Use `reporting` as name.
-
-2. Once you've set up the database, create a new Icinga Web 2 resource for it using the
-`Configuration -> Application -> Resources` menu. Make sure that you set the character set to `utf8mb4`.
-
-3. The next step involves telling the Reporting module which database resource to use. This can be done in
-`Configuration -> Modules -> reporting -> Backend`. If you've used `reporting` as name for the resource,
-you can skip this step.
-
 This concludes the installation. Now continue with the [configuration](03-Configuration.md).
-
-## Scheduler Daemon
-
-There is a daemon for generating and distributing reports on a schedule if configured:
-
-```
-icingacli reporting schedule run
-```
-
-This command schedules the execution of all applicable reports.
-
-You may configure this command as `systemd` service. Just copy the example service definition from
-`config/systemd/icinga-reporting.service` to `/etc/systemd/system/icinga-reporting.service` and enable it afterwards:
-
-```
-systemctl enable icinga-reporting.service
