I'm setting up a schedule with library distribution. I go into the distribution screen and set it up just fine, but when I go over from the "general" tab to the "options" tab, the whole section down in "Email for Library" is grayed out. I want to put in a custom subject and message.
What's up with that?

Version 8.105

Hello. Did you ever resolve this? I'm seeing the same thing with our setup....figure its a configuration thing?

i think you need to set distribution up using a access list in order to enable that section

Hi Mike-
Did you ever resolve this? If not, there is a prompt up at the top of the Library Distribution Options window that you have to check which says: "Send email after report saved to library". That will enable the bottom section "Email for Library" to be edited.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Barb

Hi Barb,

My whole dilema is that the "send email after report saved to library" is disabled - I am unable to click in it and put a check mark.

Hi Mike:
So under the General tab, do you have the Enabled checkbox checked (at the bottom)?

Yep, everything looks as it should. I'll probably open a ticket with IBI on it.

Yes- hope they can get it solved for you. I had 2 other ideas.
1. security settings or permissions on your login
2. ReportCaster Admin Console settings:
a. under the Configuration tab, select Report Library
b. make sure the Enabled checkbox is clicked.
