E-mail functionality in SAP BO X1 3.1

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have few questions regarding the E-mail functionality in SAP BO X1 3.1

1)Is there a limitation on size of report in Email within the SAP BO X1 3.1?

2)Can you zip reports within SAP BO X1 3.1 ?file type options(?)

3)Is there an Impact on performance front end/back end if many users are mailing the reports using SAP BO X1 3.1?

4)How can we restrict users to only email the public folder Reports?

5)Only people with Scheduling have access to Email Functionality - Are there any other ways we can place restrictions around this?

Please help in this regard

Thanks in Advance

Regards,

Hi Pavithra,

We can send a report instance (after schedulling) to an email address and not the actual report.

Adaptive Job Server (Web Intelligence Scheduling and Publishing Service) is used to generate the instance and Destination Job Server is used to deliver that instance to the email address.

If multiple users are expected to send instances to email concurrently then we could have multiple instances of Destination Job Server.

As far as I am aware, there is no direct way to zip reports.

If I am not wrong, the size of attachment would depend on the limitations set at Mail Servers. Your network administrator might help you on this.

Hope this will help.

Yuvraj
