Filter when a report with repeating delivery is sent

I would like to be able to add a filter to a report with repeating delivery so that it only sends out if the report contains information. For example I have a report showing issues which have been waiting for approval for more than 1 week. Sometimes there are no issues overdue, so I do not want Workfront to send out an empty report.

I would agree with this as long as it's a filter or setting that can be set on each report.


I wouldn't want it to be a global setting for all reports. We update processes and custom fields enough that sometimes a report will suddenly show up blank because we've removed a field that is used as a filter on that report - or something along those lines. And if that report didn't send because it was blank, users might think the report was just blank this week and and wind up forgetting about it, missing out on important information.
