The Test report feature lets you preview how a report works in a business messenger before activating it for your team.
When the Test report button appears
The Test report button becomes available only after at least one respondent is added to the report.
If no respondents are selected:
The button is hidden
The report cannot be tested
This ensures Teamline knows where to send the test message.
