User requested "Alert Me"

[Lochbel]

Currently using BO-XI R2. Soon to implement XI-R3.

Is there a function where the User can ask for an e-mail alert where a report is run? (for example similar to the sharepoint style functionality?)

TIA

For a report in general or for a specific recurring schedule?

For a report in general, go to the CMC and set up a Notification that will notify the user when a specific report is run under any conditions.

For a specific recurring schedule, when the report is scheduled in InfoView or the CMC you can set up a Notification.

There are two types of notifications - success and failure.

Both of these methods will work in r2 and in 3.x.

A computer only does what you actually told it to do - not what you thought you told it to do.

Thanks Hilfy,
The angle of the query was where the user could set up/request an alert, rather than the administrator setting it up.

Take a look at Sharepoint alert reminder boost (

which may provide such feature.

But I am not sure!
