SAS Visual Analytics cannot distribute reports to LDAP users with embedded spaces in their IDs. For example, if the LDAP ID is sas test, then the Report Distribution service ignores that recipient when the report is distributed. If all of the recipients have IDs with embedded spaces, then the sas-reportdistribution log contains a message that is similar to the following:

There is no workaround that enables you to distribute reports to LDAP users who have IDs with embedded spaces.
