Subscribing to Reports

Note:  Administrators and Process Designers assign user roles to reports as they add them to Accolade. Only user roles assigned to a specific report can subscribe to receive that report by email.

An HTML report displays product data on the Charts & Reports page or within a project. In addition, you can select to receive HTML reports via email. The email contains the full content of the report, and you can select how often you would like to receive each report on a report-by-report basis. If a report fails to run, you receive a failure notification if you are subscribed to the report.

Important! HTML reports can range in size. To receive emails with larger reports, ensure your company's email server accommodates the file size required. You may be able to preview a report within Accolade but not receive it by email if the email server blocks the emails due to its size.

To set up an email schedule for a report:

  1. Access your user profile and select the HTML Reports tab.

The reports that you have access to display.

Reports listed with an asterisk (*) are set to required. You cannot modify the selections for these reports.

  1. Click Apply to save your changes.

To send a report immediately:

  1. Access your user profile and select the HTML Reports tab.

The reports that you have access to display.

  1. Select the Send Now check box next to the reports you want to send.

To select all reports, select the Send Now check box at the top of the Send Now column.

  1. Do one of the following:
  • To send the selected reports to yourself - Click Send.
  • To send the selected reports to others - Click Share, select the users you want to send the report to, and click OK. Accolade sends a copy of the report to you and the selected users, with the same data that displays to you. If there is sensitive data in the report, take caution in sending it to others.

You can also share an HTML report with users while viewing the report through the Charts & Reports page.

Notes:   

  • If a report contains no data, or contains data that you are not authorized to view, Accolade does not send the report.
  • Accolade sends a separate email for each report.
  • HTML reports viewable in Lotus Notes are not supported.
