The Report that you have already created and saved using the Reports Definition feature can be programmed to be delivered to any email address. This action is performed by a "Delivery Schedule". Any Report can have a Delivery Schedule and more than one Delivery Schedule can be added to each Report.
- With the Report Definition selected, click/tap Add New Delivery.
A window named Delivery Details will open. In this window you are required to fill in all the Delivery Schedule details.
- Delivery Name: Input a clear name that helps you identify this Delivery. This Name will be included in the email and in the generated report.
- Active: You can activate or deactivate this definition anytime by checking the box.
- Date Range: This drop-down allows you to choose the reporting period. The report will be generated using today as the start date and then count backward until the option selected is met. The Custom Calendar option allows you to specify a Begin and End date.
