BI Report Output file renaming not reflecting in the Report Job History but reflecting in file name

Organization Name
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A
Description
Hello,
![]() |
SR 3-22818855591 |
The above SR was raised with Oracle, as when we are generating the report after scheduling and we want the output file name to be changed and not the default report name.For which the output type was set as Email and the destination email was added and the file name was also changed. The observation after this is weird as the output in the email attachment after scheduling gives the changed report name given by us. But, on the other hand, when the Scheduled Report job History was checked there was no name change happened. As per Oracle, it is the default behavior of the product as it gives the renamed file for the scheduled report only at the destination, but when we try opening the same schedule report in the JOB history it did not change, which causes the discrepency.
Use Case and Business Need
This is the basic ask for the BI report that, can we rename the report output file, but while renaming this causes a discrepency in the file name sent at the destination and the same scheduled file name in the Report Job history. This idea of same change file name can bring the sync in the output file name being used by the customers -whether they download from the Report Job History or they send it to some destination(Email or FTP)
More details
The current product gives the option to rename the output file while scheduling but since the name changed does not reflect when the report is downloaded from the Report Job History. Hence it marks a question of confusion and credibility for the file if seen from these two places(Scheduled Report Job History or the Destination).Please find the attached screenshots when a Report Output name was changed to TEST and was sent to Email, and the same report wehn seen through the Report Job history, reflected the default name only
