Article summary

You can schedule and share your reports so that users can refresh the data regularly, or edit them in Delivery Hub. You can also export and send a static report that stakeholders can view even if they do not have an account in Delivery Hub. This allows colleagues and stakeholders to monitor daily operations and track your delivery performance, or to receive a recurring update for ongoing visibility and long-term analysis.

For example, you can send a report to your accounting team showing the expected invoice from your shipping accounts.
