With Report Caster it seems like an Email is sent to notify the creator of the schedule that the report is complete and in the Library. How ever if I create a schedule that someone else runs the email is still sent to me. What we want is the Email to be sent to whom ever executed the schedule. How do we set that up?

You would think this is not hard to do, should be able to do out of the box.

One option is the person who executes the schedule can update his/her email id to the notification list before executing the schedule.

Second option(in case of HTML report output), is to use report bursting option and create one more report which conveys the execution status. You may need to check packet email setting to ensure 2 separate mails were sent instead of attaching both the reports in same mail. Also keep the notification list blank.

Second option is a work around. I have not yet tested this. But should give you some idea for your requirement.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Ram

Is the user setup in webFOCUS?

Is his mail ID available in the WebFOCUS repository tables - security?

Then you may go for an EDAMAIL, query the Email ID based on user ID - send a mail once the report is done without any errors.


Thanks,

Ramkumar.
