When are subscriptions triggered, and MicroStrategy reports and documents delivered?
Business users can set a variety of report distribution triggers, including: send now, time-based schedules (e.g., every Monday morning), event-based triggers (e.g., when the books are closed), or alert-based triggers (e.g., if inventory levels drop 10% below normal). While schedule-based distributions are common in the BI industry, event-based triggers and alert-based triggers are far less common and empower the users to see reports only when they need to look at the data, thereby giving time back to the information user.
