Schedule e-mail
With TAP Feed Pro reports can be scheduled to be emailed automatically to either a PDF, XLS or XLSX file type. In order to use the automated reports, you need to create a preset of the report(s) that you want to schedule. 
 
To setup the e-mail schedule for a report, go to the preset overview of the corresponding report. In the example below, we have navigated from the reports overview to the preset overview of the load report:
 
Schedule e-mail

4.       Choose which language the report should be in. This can be different than the language you have chosen in TAP FEED.

6.       If you want to send the report to a supplier or consultant, you have to add them as a contact here and only contacts that have a valid e-mail address can be selected here. Using the green + it is possible to add a contact and after this has been created you can select this from the dropdown.
