When I choose a Specified Filename with CE 9

[bessebo]

I recently noticed that I can specify a specific filename under Destination, Email(SMTP) when the report runs and I can add a placeholder for the suffix of the filename based on the type of format I choose. I am a little concerned that if this is a recurring job and the report runs the 2nd time that it could error out because there is already a file with that specific name. Should I be concerned?

I don't think that you need to be concerned, I doubt that CE stores the file with that name, that's for your attachment purposes.

Try testing.

synapsevampire is correct. CE uses it's own crytptic filenames. If you are running the report on a recurring basis, using the same filename, the old report will be overwritten in the destination folder.
