Admin can allow Users to set a scheduling task for their generated report updates to be emailed to selected recipients.    

Admin can enable Report Subscription to allow certain Users (Role-based) to schedule subscription tasks for their generated reports. During the subscription period, the report will automatically be rerun and emailed to added recipients on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. Recipients are added by email address and are therefore not limited to staff or website users. A subscription can be edited, viewed, paused or cancelled by the User. Subscriptions are trackable via the subscription log.

Info
  • The Report Subscription feature is only available if Report Generator is in use. See The Report Generator for more details.
  • For a generated report to be subscribable, the original report on which it is based must have been flagged as subscribable in Report Design.
