Choosing E-mail as the Print Destination
Overview
You can create a report file that can be attached to an e-mail.
Note: You must be assigned to a security group that has permission to change the print destination. (Otherwise, the only option is Printer.)
To change the default print destination to E-mail:
-
Click File > Print Destination.
-
Select E-mail.
-
Select either Adobe Acrobat (PDF) or Rich Text Format (RTF) as the file format for the e-mail attachment.
You can open PDF files with Adobe Acrobat Reader (available as a free download from the Adobe Software website).
You can open RTF files with most word-processing programs.
-
Click OK.
Note: When you e-mail audit reports, G/L allows you to clear the data for them.
If
recipient drills down to transaction
The e-mail recipient needs the same database as the sender, with G/L installed, if they are going to drill down from a report to the underlying transaction.
