Target by distribution list

Enterprise distribution lists can include users in multiple organizations, as long as the creator has user base permission to access the user and the organization. Static and dynamic distribution lists provide a quick and efficient method for targeting multiple users across the enterprise or super enterprise.
For example, the enterprise operator can alert IT personnel in the federal agency suborganizations with an enterprise distribution list of just IT members.
Prerequisite:
 Distribution lists must exist in the enterprise or super enterprise organization and include members of the user base of the enterprise operator. These are users from organizations that the enterprise operator can access. For more information, see Create enterprise distribution lists.
