Use

You can search for the broadcast settings and their schedules in Broadcasting Administration (transaction code RSRD_ADMIN) using various categories, edit them, and delete settings that are no longer needed. You can also look for error analysis long entries and display them.

Features

The following functions are available for the administration of broadcast settings:

Mass Access

Settings

You can select broadcast settings for which the properties are displayed in a list using various criteria (such as the technical name, description, last changed by, changed at, type of object concerned [query, query view, report, Web template or workbook], distribution type, or output format). You can then select the broadcast settings in the list and you can manage these settings as follows:

·        You can display the schedules for the broadcast settings and navigate into the log display to analyze errors or delete schedules that are no longer required.

·        You can change the broadcast settings that appear with the BEx Broadcaster in the Web browser.

·        You can delete the broadcast settings that are no longer required.

Schedules

You can search for and display schedules of broadcast settings using various criteria (such as the technical name of the broadcast setting, the time/date it was created or of the last schedule, and the type of schedule). You can use the type of schedule to find, for example, all the schedules that were generated when data was changed in the InfoProvider, at a given time or date, or as a background job as a result of direct scheduling. The corresponding schedules are displayed in the list. You can select the schedules and work with the following functions:

·        Log display: You can display the last log of a schedule to, for example, analyze errors.

·        Branch to broadcast setting display: You can navigate from the schedules to the list of broadcast settings.

·        Delete: You can delete the broadcast settings that are no longer required.

Log Display

You can display logs for particular periods and users that were produced in broadcasting to analyze, for example, errors.

Bookmarks

Here you can reorganize the bookmarks that were created implicitly in Broadcasting. For more information, see Reorganization of Bookmark IDs and View IDs.
