Previous Topic  Next Topic 


Overview


Scheduled reports can be used to automatically email a saved report to a user or group of DataXchange users.  Maintaining email options can be done from either the user tab or the manage tab.  If preformed from the user tab this will only allow for saved reports to be emailed to the current user.  If the current account has the correct permissions, it is possible to configure emailed reports to groups of users.

The template selection will allow you to search, select, create, or modify all of the current Scheduled Reports.  You can use the text fields displayed above the Template lists to filter down your selectable options.  It is also possible to organize the Scheduled Reports using the column header.
