Sending a Report by E-mail
You can e-mail an attached report in PDF, XML or Microsoft Excel format. To send reports by e-mail
on a regular basis, set up an e-mail schedule for the report, as described in ”Adding an E-mail
Schedule for a Report” on page 440.
Keep in mind the following:
• Before you can e-mail a report, you must set up e-mail notification, as described in the topic,
”Setting Up E-mail Notification” on page 178.
• The elements in the report you send are based on your organizations and which organizations
are selected in the organization filter at the top of the page.
• Send your reports soon after a report cache refresh, which occurs every six hours by default.
Since the reports display the data that is in the cache, e-mails sent too long after a refresh will
show old data. See ”Scheduling a Report Cache Refresh” on page 209.
To send a report by e-mail:
1. Access Reporter as described in ”Accessing Reporter” on page 435.
2. Expand the tree in the middle pane, and click the report you want to send by e-mail.
3. Click E-mail this Report.
You are told the e-mail server is not enabled if you have not set up e-mail notification. You must
set up e-mail notification before you can send e-mail a report. See ”Setting Up E-mail
Notification” on page 178.
4. In the top box, enter the recipient's e-mail address.
The software verifies the address entered has a correct form. To send multiple addresses,
separate each address with a comma (,); for example:
[e-mail],[e-mail]
