OBIEE send different report to different user using ibot

Hi ,

We have a dashboard which depicts information about performance of employees . Now i want to send this performance dashboard to managers to review their subordinates performance. We want to automatically filter reports on Manager name so he gets information related to his subordinates .

None of the users who will be receiving reports are OBIEE user.

I was wondering if anyone has done this before.

Regards,

Gianni didn't say "dashboard" but "Agent".

Maybe you're just using the wrong tool for the job. Not every problem is a nail and needs a hammer.

BIP bursting is probably what you are looking for: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E28280_01/bi.1111/e22258/add_burst_def.htm#BIPDM344

Prime condition being that you can get the emails from somewhere of course. They must be stored somewhere so a query can go and pic them up so you don't have to write them manually.

And what about the "easiest" solution? Get these users in OBIEE. I don't mean the real people, just allow their account to exists.

They don't need to be aware of it (so they aren't going to use the tool for real), but if the users exists you can then run the agent as these users and have your filters all applied based on the user and send out the real content.

If licensing isn't an issue this will be the easiest solution

Never! Ever! Because...reasons? ;-)

You can create a session variable with a security filter for users so every manager sees what it is entitled to, only once logged in.

For automatic sending by mail, let me know if you find the solution

@user2461087 : Do you mind following up on your thread? As this is a community forum the idea is to give & take (not just take, for that you pay a consultant).

Or close it if you don't care (the answer is there inside...).

Or we can follow up directly with the bank
