[rt-users] Description of new privileges

[Ken Crocker]

Shawn,

Thanks. We don't run any cron jobs, so I'll have to take a look at that 
process. I'm not very familiar with Dashboards anyway, but from what 
I've seen, it looks like a method to set up a query to run via the 
browser within a session based on some parameters (date/time?). I'm 
assuming one can set up recipients for that dashboard/query as well. If 
so, would those recipients need to have "Subscribe" in order to get the 
results via web?
