We recently had an employee leave, and now the SQL Report subscriptions that he owned are not working.

When I go to re-save the subscriptions, I see an error like this:
"The user or group name 'MyDomain\jimmy' is not recognized. (rsUnknownUserName)"

Any way I can "take" ownership of these orphaned subscriptions?
I don't want to recreate them all.. (Like 50 of them)

I'm all fixed now.

I just re-assigned the Subscriptions by swapping the UserID's in the "Subscriptions" database.

In the ReportServer Database, there's a table called Users.
Select UserName, UserID from Users
Find your user that left.
Select * from Subscriptions where OwnerID = '<UserID>'
