The Document Emailing Profiles page allows you to configure how each report is emailed.
The scenario in which these reports are emailed is determined by Report Selections, see Report Selections in Business Central. For per customer or vendor emailing setups, see Setting up specific emailing scenarios for each customer or vendor.

Priority when multiple recipients are available
Given the multiple ways a recipient can be setup for an account, multiple recipients could be available at the time of emailing (an account refers to a customer, vendor, location, or employee). The following list describes the priority of each recipient setup.
- Document email field (i.e. sell-to/buy-from, bill-to/pay-to, ship-to/order-from)
- Account document layout’s recipient setup
- Document emailing profile’s job title code field (this option will combine the emails document email field and job title emails if both are available)
- Account’s email field
- Account contact’s email field (customer/vendor)
When no email address is available from any of the above sources, and printing remaining is enabled, reports will be printed instead, otherwise an error will occur.
Direct printing
This feature is only available in on-premise environments.
If you enable direct printing for a report, you must also specify direct printer selections from the document emailing profiles page. Direct printer selections in this context works the same as regular printer selections, but only applies when direct printing.
