Publisher bursting depends on the bursting delivery query to supply the information needed to format and distribute every split report segment. Oracle states that the delivery query returns a mapping containing elements such as the bursting key, template, locale, output format, delivery channel, output name, and channel-specific parameters.

For email delivery, the recipient email address is supplied through the delivery parameters returned by this query. Oracle's own invoice bursting example retrieves CST_EMAIL_ADDRESS from the customer table and places it in the appropriate email parameter. If the query doesn't return a valid email address for a particular bursting key, Publisher lacks the required destination information for that recipient.

The presence of a chart has no bearing on email delivery. Dashboard prompts are unrelated to scheduled bursting, and query caching doesn't supply recipient addresses.

Therefore, when specific recipients are missing email addresses in the bursting-query results, the failure is attributable to incomplete or invalid delivery information in the bursting control query , making B correct.
