kt1Bursting Attachmentd as Separate Emails In RCaster
Hello All,
I have reports for three regions to be sent as
PDF attachments. The distribution is:
Burst Value Address
North samjones@test1.com
East johndoe@test2.com
South samjones@test1.com
In the above example sam jones will get one email with two attachments. Is there a way to send sam jones two separate emails, each with only one attachment?
Thanks to all,
Ken

FrankDutchWe have had that question too and how I solved this is asking the IT department to create an alias email code for the same user and put that in the adress.

jncHave you tried different capitalization for samjones name?
burst1 SamJones@test.com
burst2 samjones@test.com

kt1Thanks to all!
I think either of these will work fine.

FrankDutchI would like to know if the suggestion of jnc works.
Might be a work around I can use too, allmost endless possibilities and if this would work I can also prefend myself for failures.

GGSDHi kt1,
In WebFOCUS 713 and higher there is a setting in Report Caster Configuration to control this behaviour. It is called Packet Email.
It controls whether all burst values are distributed as multiple attachments in a single e-mail, or as a single attachment in individual e-mails.
By default, the Packet Email parameter is set to YES, meaning that people receiving multiple burst values receive a single e-mail with multiple attachments. When the Packet Email parameter is set to NO, each burst value a person receives is distributed in a separate e-mail. The Packet Email parameter is located under the User Info folder on the General tab.
Hope this helps.
