Hello All Experts,
I have created email subscription for one report, which is working properly. I have scheduled it on everyday,its automatically send emails to the concern email id on everyday basis.
Now is there any way suppose when reports get executed and reports comes blank then its shouldnt send mail on that day. Is it possible or not? Because currently the report is coming blank then also its sending blank report to the concern email id.
Please guide me.
Regards,
AKM

Usually I will design a report to say something like "no data available." This way the recipient knows the report worked, but there was nothing to report. Frequently if they don't get the report, they are calling and asking what is wrong.
I do not know of a way not to send the email if the report fails. One possibility I would play with is a data driven subscription that changes the email recipient if the report has no data. You could redirect the no data report to you instead of the normal recipient. Data driven subscriptions are very flexible, and I am pretty sure you could get it done that way with enough patience.
Good luck.

i forgot exactly what it's called but there is an option to run the report only if some conditions are met. i usually don't like this and prefer at least some useless data to tell me that things are working. i've had instances where alarms didn't trigger due to misconfiguration and i didn't know because you couldn't test
