Report Binder process
The Report Binder process converts a report binder to any of several file formats and sends the result as an email attachment to all the users on the report binder's distribution list.
Note: To receive report binders, a user needs to be assigned, at minimum, the Report Binder Viewer function (at the Reporting license level in Security Manager).
Report binder files larger than 10 MB are automatically compressed (using the .zip standard) before sending. Report binders smaller than 10 MB are sent uncompressed.
Caution: The maximum size for email attachments is 10 MB. If the size limit is exceeded the users will not receive the file.
Note: The file types contained in a report binder affect the format that it can be converted to.
