Ad-hoc Distribution of Unusual Sales Data by E-mail 

Objective

You work in sales and analyze the monthly sales report with the current data, which you have received as an online link by e-mail. You notice unusual sales figures and would like to send the report to colleagues with exactly this navigational state to let them know about the issue.

Procedure

       1.      In the context menu for the Web application, choose Distribute  ® by E-mail. The broadcasting wizard opens.

       2.      As output format, choose Standalone HTML File.

       3.      Choose Next.

       4.      Enter the e-mail addresses of your colleagues separated with a semicolon.

       5.      Enter a subject line and the desired text, then determine the importance (for example, high) of the e-mail.

       6.      Choose Execute.

Result

The specified recipients receive the sales report with your desired navigational state and the currentness of the data at the time it was sent, together with the text you created.

For example, when you want to distribute the initial navigational state of the Web application instead of the navigational state you created, in step 2 of the broadcasting wizard you have to jump to the BEx Broadcaster after entering the subject line, importance and text. In the General Precalculation tab page there, choose Delete Navigational State and then Execute.
