[SOLVED] MRA Distribution
Is there any way to generate an e-mail distribution list from Managed Reporting Administration? I want to send an e-mail to all WebFocus users.

Thanks

Do you include the email address when you set up the user?

Yes, Pat, I did.

If you hadn't, the answer would be simple, it would be 'NO'. Since you did, I would recommend that you open a case. I can't remember exactly how to do it, but you can access the email address from MRE the same way you access the userid. I'm not sure how to create an OUTLOOK (or other email) group. We used UNIX email to send reports to our users and preloaded the email address on the parameter screen from the email address in MRE. Keep in mind that address books for email are databases. You will need to talk to your OUTLOOK (or other email) admin o find out what the data format is, create a master and use MODIFY or SQL to load it.
