You have a deployment of System Center Configuration Manager (Current Branch).
You need to ensure that the CIO of your company automatically receives the Antimalware overall status and history report by email every week.
What should you do first?
A. Configure the SMTP Settings in Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS).
B. Create a subscription in Configuration Manager.
C. Configure the execution account for Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS).
D. Configure the Subscription Schedule in Configuration Manager.
Wow thats a sneaky question indeed. Thanks to SystemCenterDude its obvious that the answer is not B, but A.
It could be either A or B.

Hi Bob,
It cannot be B, as the article confirms as well: When creating a subscription, in order to get Email option, we need to configure SSRS (SQL Server Reporting Services) first.
And the question specifically states what we should do “FIRST” 🙂 so I would go for A on this one
