Which Account will be used to write the reports to the Windows File Share in SCOM Scheduled Reports?

Is that the same account where we will provide "user name" and "password" while scheduling the report? attaching screenshot for reference.123663-sr.png

    @Deepak , For the account being used to write the reports to Windows File share, based as my understanding, it is the "user name" you mentioned which must have write user rights on the file share, We can see more details in the following link:
    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/system-center/scom/manage-reports-config-modify-schedules?view=sc-om-2019#to-create-a-report-schedule

    Please check if the account we input has enough permission. If not, please grant the required permission and see if it is fixed.

    Hope it can help.

    @Crystal-MSFT ,

    The account ab\test-rpt has all the permissions you have have mentioned but still it is failing with same error messgae.

    This is configured in Azure Environment, is that causing some trouble by any chance?

    The same rpt account was working fine with old environment which was not an Azure environment.

    Thanks,
    Deepak
