Creating Reports: Schedule and Output
5967–9446 67
To schedule a report and specify the output
1 Click or choose Report➤Schedule/Output Setup…
2 Specify the schedule and output information.
Once you have checked the appearance of your report, the next step is to
define when the report should be generated and, if needed, change the
report output parameters.
The output parameters for a report are stored in the report file itself.
Consequently, a sample report is configured to send its output to a partic-
ular printer, file, screen, email address, or command.
In contrast, scheduling information is stored in your crontab file, not in
the report file. Unless you specify otherwise, a sample report is assigned
the default schedule when you save the report. This default schedule will
generate the report every Friday at 6:00 pm.
To change the schedule or output parameters, click or choose
Report➤Schedule/Output Setup… A window like the one in figure 13 on
page 68 opens.
For detailed information about scheduling reports, refer to page 125. For
information about output options, see page 132.
