The “Reports” Tab permits the user to set defaults for various reporting functions within FOS.
(Main view of the Reports Tab)
“E-Mail, Spread Sheet, HTML” Section
E-Mail - You may choose the e-mail client which your company uses.
Note: If using FOS in a hosted environment, whether internally or externally hosted, it is likely your e-mail client program may not be on the server. If this is the case, you must use the “SMTP” option and have a mail server address entered on the “Web” tab in the Company Data.

Check Address - The Check Address function is used in conjunction with the SMTP e-mail. It is meant to check addresses when sending. If the e-mail in FOS has no domain, the domain of the e-mail address on the General tab will be used in conjunction with the e-mail set for the crewmember, passenger, etc. to insure there is a proper e-mail when sent.
