# Enable Reporting Family Configuration Scenarios

Learn more about the Reporting Family Configuration Scenarios feature and how to enable it in your Vault.


## About Reporting Family Configuration Scenarios

With this feature, Vault Business Admins can configure Partner Distribution Lists to include the following:

* All Products stored in the Vault.
* All Studies stored in the Vault.
* All Products within a designated Product Family.
* All Products coded to a specific Product Registration.
* Products which contain a specific Substance or multiple Substances.

Previously, this functionality was limited to specific Products and Studies. This feature provides Business Admins with greater Reporting Family configurability, especially in scenarios where additional Products, Studies, Substances, or Product Family members are configured in Production.

See <a href="/en/lr/01254/">Manage Partner Distribution Lists</a> for more information about creating and configuring Partner Distribution Lists.
