Unable to select individual Users when you schedule a report in Salesforce

When scheduling a Salesforce report to be emailed to specific users, administrators may find that individual users cannot be selected as recipients. This behavior occurs because Salesforce only allows report schedules to be sent to users who have access to the report folder.

If the report is stored in a folder that restricts access to specific roles, groups, or users, individuals who do not have access to that folder cannot be added as direct recipients in the report schedule. As a result, administrators may need to temporarily modify folder access settings or use an alternative sharing approach to distribute the report.

This article provides several workarounds that can be used to schedule reports for the intended recipients while maintaining appropriate folder security.
