Enabling watch rules lets the report user specify conditions in saved HTML report output and receive alerts based on these conditions. Whenever the report is run and report output is saved and the conditions are satisfied, the report user is alerted by email or news item.
For information about creating a watch rule, see Create a Watch Rule for a Report.
To allow watch rules for a report, you must have write permission for the report.
In Reporting Center, click the set properties button next to the report.
On the Report tab for Report Studio reports or the Query tab for Query Studio reports, under Advanced options, select the Enable selection based interactivity in HTML reports and Enable enhanced user features in saved output versions check boxes.
Selecting these options specifies that additional context information is saved with the report output.
Click OK.
After selecting the advanced options, you must run the report and save the report output in HTML format before users can create watch rules.
