Viewing Subscription Details

To view the details of a subscription:

1. Select the subscription from the View Area.

2. Click the Details button ().

Subscription details are divided between the following two tabs.

The Subscription tab displays

• the source of the subscription. Subscriptions to a channel that you created directly will display the personal icon and are listed as "Personal."

• a description of the subscription.

• the delivery transport (E-mail, Queue, or None). For information about changing your delivery transport or its properties, see
  • Defining Unique Subscription Properties for a Channel
  • Defining Your Default Subscription Properties

The Channel tab displays a description of the channel, its subject, and any associated keywords and reference keys.

Subscription details cannot be viewed for channels to which you are subscribed as part of a group. However, in order to view the details of a group subscription to a channel, you might duplicate the subscription as a personal subscription whose details you can view. Personal () and group ( ) subscriptions are apparent in your subscription listing.

Regardless of the duplicate subscription, you will receive channel information only according to the delivery properties of your personal channel subscription. Therefore, you will receive only one package, rather than two, according to your personal subscription properties.

Note: If you cannot view existing subscriptions that you previously created and existing channels to which you previously subscribed using SAS Subscription Manager, Release 1.1, your existing channel and subscriber definitions are out of date. To fix this problem, the publishing framework administrator at your site must explicitly update the schema files to SAS Release 8.2.
