Does Report Document Exist 
DoesReportDocumentExist(<report_document_name>)

The function returns True if a report document with the given name exists in the current context (e.g. if a report document has successfully been created using a Create Report Document Action) and False if that is not the case. Therefore, this function can only return True when executed in the context of a task.

Example
The following Report has a Report Condition


The task Creates the Report Document and afterwards the Group action tests the existence of the Report using the function  DoesReportDocumentExist.


If the Report exists an email will be sent.
