Features and Enhancements for SAP SuccessFactors Workforce Analytics Technical Consultant 2411

New Limitation on the Number of Reports in a Report Bundle

You can now add a maximum of 10 reports to a report bundle that you want to schedule using the report distributor tool.

This enhancement allows you to access information without overloading the system, as simultaneous scheduling and running of Canvas Reports previously caused significant strain on the database.

What's Changed

In the current version, you can add a maximum of 10 reports to a report bundle when scheduling reports with the report distributor tool. If you must add more reports, you can create additional bundles. This limit only applies when creating a new report bundle, and doesn't affect existing bundles.

In the previous version, you could add as many reports as you wished in a single bundle while scheduling a report in the report distributor tool.
