  • Test: Clicking the '✓' button will either display a success message or show error messages with further information on missing or misconfigured settings.

  • Save: the 'Save' button saves changes made to the distributor settings.

After testing a success or failure message will be displayed in ReportWORQ. If successful, a test message will be sent to the specified ReportWORQ Channel.
