Configure email settings to send basic reports

You can send Power Operation basic reports to multiple email addresses.

SMTP Server and From Address

For instructions on setting up the SMTP server, see Configure basic reports for email.

Email Lists

Before you can send email via the URL or ReportMailer method, you must create at least one email list:

  1. In a text editor; enter one or more email addresses (one per line, no commas).
  2. Save this text file in the Reporting\ReportConfigurations\ directory, located on the application root install directory (which is also the physical directory behind the reporting web application's virtual path in IIS).

    3. Example (64 bit):
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Schneider Electric\Power Operation\v2024\ Applications\Reporting\ReportConfigurations\

    The file name must be in the following format:

    Email_<EmailListName>.cfg

    Where:

    <EmailListName> = an alphanumeric (no spaces) name for the email list (for example, Administration)

Email Body

The email body that you send is contained in a resource (.resx) file in the Reporting\bin\Resources\Reporting.en-US.resx\ directory, located on the application root install directory (which is also the physical directory behind the reporting web application's virtual path in IIS).

Example (64 bit):
C:\Program Files (x86)\Schneider Electric\Power Operation\v2024\Applications\Reporting\bin\Resources\Reporting.en-US.resx\

The email body is the same for all Report Configurations and Email Lists, but you can modify the entry for ReportEmailBody to change the body of the email that is sent.
