Some New Little features in APEX 4.2 Reports

There are some new features added in Reports in Oracle APEX 4.2. May be some guys found this topic not important but these are the little things that we do not notice but these little things making big differences.

 1) Email From Address in Interactive Reports:

 In APEX previous versions, there is an issue in from address in emails, to address is treated as the from address.For example :If you sent email to abc@gmail.com then from address is also

abc@gmail.com which is confusing and causing some troubles. But in APEX 4.2, we can do it. 

There are  two ways:

In  Report attributes , go to advance attributes, here you can set from address in the email from address from field.

Second way is from Application properties,  Go to Edit Application Properties, In  Definition there is a property section where you can set email address in Application Email From Address.

You can also use item value in address field like  &MY_APP_EMAIL_FROM.  but Oracle does not recommend using an item substitution at the application or page level since it only works for email downloads, but not in a subscriptions.
