This section will describe the **Report Preview** Sub-Tab.
4+
5+
From this Sub-Tab, you will be able to preview the **Report** leveraging the
6+
**Format File** if you included one on the **Details** sub-tab. The rendering may actually
7+
be different depending on the Email client your recipient uses. So, it's best
8+
to send the reports to the recipients using the **Send Report** option in the upper
9+
right corner of the image below.

There is not too much more to speak about on this Sub-Tab.
