The Email Challenge

The Report Is Ready. The Email Still Needs Work.

Your team still has to write the message, choose the files and make the report readable for the recipient. CRD makes that presentation part of the reporting job.

Attachments Get Missed

Readers may need the key report in the message as well as a file to save.

Messages Need Context

A generic subject does little to explain the customer, shipment or reporting period.

The Same Email Needs Writing Again

The report changes, but someone still has to prepare and send the message each time.

Why Choose CRD

Make the Email Part of the Reporting Schedule

CRD brings the report, attachments, message and sending account together for recurring delivery.

SAP Crystal Server

Email Publications

SAP Crystal Server can embed personalized Crystal report content in email and attach documents through the applicable publishing workflow.

Personalized Publications require Concurrent Sessions licensing. Named User licensing supports ordinary scheduled delivery.

CRD

The Email Your Reader Needs

Show an individual report in the message, with a copy attached if needed.

Create HTML or plain-text messages that explain what has arrived.

Add customer names, reporting dates and other data values.

Set To, CC and BCC for the people who need the report.

Send through a supported business email account.

Email design and data-driven messaging are included in your CRD licence, with no additional publishing feature licence.

Your Report Email Questions, Answered

Answers to common questions before you try CRD.

Can the report be embedded and attached?

Yes. An individual report can appear in the message with a copy attached. HTML embedding uses SMTP; MAPI embedding is text-only.

Can subjects and messages use customer details?

Yes. Inserts can add dates, customer names and database values to supported message fields. Data-driven functionality is included at no additional cost.

Can we use Microsoft 365?

Yes, with a supported account setup and the tenant permissions your organization requires.

Can grouped Data-Driven emails embed reports?

No. Output grouped by email address uses attachments or merged files instead. Data-driven reporting is included in the licence.

Are AI summaries included?

The CRD feature is included. Using it also requires an external AI account, any applicable service charges and approval for the report data. Generated summaries should be reviewed for accuracy.

What can delivery records tell us?

They help you investigate the sending process. A sent record or read receipt does not establish that someone read the report; CRD’s read-receipt setting applies to Exchange.
