Multicast
The delivery of information to stakeholders when and where they need it, is a
critical component of information collaboration. Yellowfin’s multicast
module provides simply the best delivery mechanisms available in reporting
today.
Yellowfin’s report writer enables you to transform raw data into
information - allowing your business experts to make informed business
decisions. Unless these reports are put into the hands of decision
makers however, the Business Performance Management to make those decisions
will be limited.

Subscription and Administrator Broadcast
Yellowfin supports both push and pull report delivery. Without the need
for IT administrator intervention, Yellowfin users can subscribe to
reports, as well as subscribe other users to relevant reports.
-
Reports can be pushed to both users and non-users of Yellowfin
further reducing administration costs and enabling deployment to very large
stakeholder populations.
-
Where Access filters are in place, Yellowfin will filter
report output uniquely for each user, ensuring 100% security and
personalization.

Delivery Driven by Frequency, Rules or Alerts
Information overload is often the cause of failed Business Performance
Management projects. Rather than pushing every report to your user base
on a scheduled basis exception based reporting should be
utilized.
With Yellowfin, users can choose the basis for report distribution. Through
business rules,alerts such as data thresholds or simple frequency timings your
users can select the most appropriate mechanism to meet their needs. This
will assist in reducing the amount of non-relevant reports distributed and
contribute to the success of your project.
