If some part of the data in your report is sensative, you can't risk sending the whole report to everybody, even to those who need to see the least sensative part of report !
Solution is Report Bursting.
You can send reports to BCA for scheduled processing & distribution to users based on THEIR profiles (profile = user rights) & not based on your profile !
BO 5 & WebI 2.5 procedure to do this :
Open the document, click "Send to BroadCast Agent" on Doc Exchange toolbar.
In Actions tab select "Refresh with the Profile of Each Recipient"
In the Distributions tab select "Distribute via the Business Objects Repository. (only option to enable you for Report Bursting)
click To, select recipients,
Schedule it & OK.
In WebI 2.5...........
in Refresh options Select Scheduled Refresh & click send
on Scheduling Options, Set "Refresh According to the profile of each recipient" to Yes & OK.

Can someone please give some information on REPORT BURSTING and how to do it in BCA as i have to split the report and send diff reports to diff people

Report bursting is nothing but running report at one time and distribute results to multiple users.

Example: Suppose if we have multiple sales persons and each sales person want to see only his report not for all sales persons reports then we will use report bursting where we can distribute only his reports.
