Is there a way to unsubscribe user (after they have left the company) from a library report?

You'll have to log in as Administrator first. Then on the top right menu bar click on Administration then go into Mode Manager. That will expose all user's subscriptions under their User Id. Then right click on whatever you want to remove and delete.

"expose all user's subscriptions under their User Id" - where does this occur? In the Security Center? In the Resource Tree?

Under Content, if you click down arrow for each Domain or Folder, in Manager Mode you get the user's My Content folders.

I should see an icon for each subscribed report?

All I see is an empty folder called "Custom Reports" for some User IDs.

I'm running 8105. Once I go into Mode Manager (logged in as Admin), the Domain Folders drop down will list Users' folders first. Each of these can be expanded to show the users' content.

This sounds like you’re deleting the report(s) to which the user had previously subscribed instead of actually selecting the report(s), right-clicking and then selecting the Unsubscribe option. I don’t see how deleting the report(s) unsubscribes the user from getting an email when the schedule runs the next time, but I very well could be mistaken.

You're right. I misunderstood the question. I thought we're trying to purge stuff the user scheduled. If he's subscribed to something other users have created this won't work.

And there doesn't seem to be a way to do this, does there?

You could delete rows from the appropriate table(s)...

This might be a good question to bring up with Tech support.

Yes, missing but expected features are very good subjects to discuss with Tech Support.

You could always delete the schedule and then add it back (thereby creating an additional, new entry into the repository and therefore a new set of reports) but that introduces other problems, i.e., you’ll end up with duplicate report library folders (Titles) and users would then need to re-subscribe to the new report. I agree with contacting IBI. Surely they could come up with a “routine” to delete the necessary entries from the tables.
