Before you can use information broadcasting, you have to make a number of system administration settings. A number of broadcast functions are also available for business experts and system administrators.

Prerequisites

Make sure that you have administrator authorization for broadcasting. You need authorization object S_RS_ADMWB with field RSADMWBOBJ = BR_SETTING.

The Broadcast by E-Mail, Broadcast to Portal, and Broadcast to Printer distribution types are intended for all users.
