Yes, use the VMDRPT utility.   

VMDRPT capabilities include: 

• Producing a report that lists some or all requests in the CA VM:Schedule™ 2.0 request database.
  This report can use a selection file that controls request selection and ordering. You select the report contents by changing VMDRPT parameters and running the utility.
• Including specific requests in the report.
  You can specify which requests to include in a report by entering SELECT records in the selection file. 
• Excluding specific requests from the report.
  You can specify which requests to omit from a report by entering IGNORE records in the selection file. .
• Sorting and positioning requests in report fields.
  You can determine the order in which requests are included in a report by entering a SORT record in the selection file.
