Conditional email sending using BI bursting...? AND CC lists

Hi list,

I know this can be tested with a suck and see method, but does anyone know if it is possible to condition BI publisher to send an email out?

My thoughts were if I setup the RD in P95620 to use an XML field for the To email address, then if it were blank then it obviously can't send an email to a blank address

My question is, has anyone tried this and is the system ok with a blank email?

I am guessing the BI output will just stay on the system and be viewable via WSJ

CC lists:
Can I do this using data driven recipients in a similar manner?
I have told the analyst to use P02150 but they want the emails stored as lines in F0111, so I guess a loop and populate upto 10 emails and extract them into the P95620 may work too?


Thanks

You can set up a different email type per UBE if you want,
i.e. one for EPO (email purchase orders) EIN (email invoices) etc.
If there is no email address- will not email but can still print.
I put the email address on the output - than I know if it emailed or if it needs to be mailed.
 
In my experience you'll just get a delivery error and a message related to the address from the SMTP function. The burst content will still be present and viewable from WSJ.
 
Awesome guys thanks


Next question

To email and CC emails????


If I use the Data Driven Recipient and paste in the XML email tags, how do I know which will end up in the To and CC field?

They'll all end up in the To field right?
