Subscriptions

Subscriptions: A standing request to deliver a report at specific time or in response to an event and then to have that report presented in a way that you define. Subscriptions can be used to schedule and then automate the delivery of a report to the intended audience. Basically, you are using subscription to publish your report. SSRS allows you to create two types of subscriptions:

  1. Standard Subscription is used by any user having " Manage individual subscriptions" or "View a Report" permissions with Static Values for the parameters. It means whatever parameters the report expects needs to be provided at the time of subscription creation and cannot be changed at runtime.
  2. Data-Driven Subscription: Data or parameter values required during execution of the report, can come from a query including a recipient list, delivery method, and parameter values needed for each recipient report execution.
