CP5 and email reporting

I"ve tried publishing a project that had the results reported through email.
It hasn't worked. Anyone else try this option and have any success?
Thank you,
Susan

Hi Susan
Indeed it seems about a kabillion folks have attempted E-mail reporting and noticed it is sporadic at best.
That's why it's listed here:

It's also why Adobe created the alternate means of reporting with Captivate 5.

Can I schedule and email reports from ACS 5.1

I would like to receive a report daily on our TACACS activity on our network devices. I've looked thru the menus and searched some but have not found a clear way to generate such a report.
any help is appreciated.

Working with Scheduled Reports
In ACS 5.5, you can schedule reports for a future date in such a way that ACS automatically generates the report. This can be done using the scheduled reports feature available in the Monitoring and Reports web interface. This feature is available only for the for RADIUS authentication, RADIUS accounting, TACACS+ authentication, TACACS+ authorization, and TACACS+ accounting reports. ACS generates the scheduled reports based on the given time range, exports them to a .csv file, and stores them in the specified remote repository.
Previous releases of ACS allowed you to export reports and copy the .csv file to the local file system. You need to copy the exported file using the copy command to a remote location. But in ACS 5.5, you have the option to configure the remote repository to which the generated reports are exported and stored.
An email notification is sent whenever a scheduled report is generated successfully. The email notification contains the following information:
Scheduled Report Name—Name of the scheduled report.
Cause—The reason for which you have received this email or alarm notification. In this case, the notification is a scheduled report alarm.
Details—The details of the email notification.
Repository Name—Name of the remote repository where the generated reports are stored.
Repository URL—URL of the remote repository.
File Name—Name of the generated report. The format of the filename is <Name of the Scheduled Report>-<Report Type>. For instance, if the name of the scheduled report is “report1” and the report type is RADIUS_Accounting, then the filename is displayed as: report1-RADIUS_Accounting.csv
Generated on—The date and time at which the report is generated.
ACS does not generate any alarms or email notifications if a scheduled report generation fails. To know the status of the scheduled reports, go to the Monitoring Configuration > System Operations > Scheduler page and check for the status.

How to config. to schedule and email reports

Hi,
Please help me on these questions:
1. How to configure the reports server (or 9iAS or something
else) to schedule reports, I also need to email the reports to
customers in pdf and excel format, what should I do to achieve
this?
2. I have to re_start report server from 6iserver directory
using reports60_server start (on Soloris 5.8, I use SSH to
access it and I build a tunnel for the prot 7777 to my local
computer) every time I run a report, How can I fix this problem?
3. my reports require passing parameters in, but I didn't see
anywhere I can do this if I run them from URL, any idea how to
fix ?
Thanks very much

I can only answer #3, I am looking for the answer to the 2nd
part of #1. You can pass all Report specific paramters to the
reports server with the URL. ex/
http://server_name/app_server/server.exe?param1=...&param2=...
etc. the param1 and param2 names and values will be passed along
to the report itself.

Schedule and Email Reports

Is there any way to schedule reports to run and have the output emailed? As far as I can tell this is not possible, but wondering if anyone has come up with any workarounds.
Maybe running a windows scheduler job to launch the Reports and Analysis for Excel template plugin and then email the report?
Is anyone in the know if this is scheduled for a future release?

Hi Bob,
Any idea you can share on the release of this feature. As few of my customers are asking for such functionality.

Password Protect Report Exports and Email

Hi there
My client's requirement is to automatically run, export and email reports with the report output (excel/word/etc) having password protection. Think this is possible with BI publisher, but wondering if there is any nifty way of doing this with Discoverer. For example now Discoverer is integrated with BI Publisher does this mean it's possible by creating report in Disco (potentially) then using BI Pub to automatically run, export and email results with pwd protection? Any other ideas??
This is an eBusiness Suite environment, Disco version 10.1.2, eBusiness Suite version 11.5.10 (they also have 11.5.8, but we don't believe we'll be doing this solution on tha environment).
Cheers, Kate

Hi,
I don't think there is any easy solution to this, but what we do at this site is schedule the Discoverer reports to run using the eBusiness Suite Concurrent Manager. We use dedicated Discoverer workstations to run the Discoverer exports and these could also be used to email the report if this was a requirement.
There is an article on my website (www.cabotconsulting.co.uk) about scheduling Discoverer reports using the Applications 11i concurrent manager and you can also search this forum for scheduling and email for information on how to email reports.
Hope that helps,
Rod West

Dynamic CRM 2013 Online how to execute Report, generate PDF and email

Dear All,
I am using Dynamic CRM 2013 online. For quote, I have workflow and Dialogue processes for review process. On approval, I want the system to generate a PDF of quote report, attach the PDF and email it to the Customer.
Better I would like, When approver, clicks on the approve button, the system should auto generate a PDF of quote report, attach the PDF and email it to the Customer, without any further input from the user. If its not possible, I may have to put button on
quote form.
I am using the attached code, but facing various issues.
1. Under prepare the SOAP Message coding part, I am not sure what should be the below URL for CRM 2013 Online?
xHReq.Open("POST", "/mscrmservices/2007/CrmService.asmx", false);
2. What should be the emailid here? Is it Recepient Contact id(Guid) ?
var emailid = resultXml.selectSingleNode("//CreateResult").nodeTypedValue;
alert("emailid" + emailid.toString());
3. Using this code, not able to create Entity for "ActivityMimeAttachment", I am getting newEntity as undefined.
Below is the code I am using. Please check and help me out, where I am going wrong. Let me know if any better way to implement it. At present, I have put one button on quote form, on click event, below code will get executed.

Report to file and email (excel or pdf)

Hi!
I have a report where I list financial data about a company. The report is only one pivot table! There is a dashboard prompt, where you can choose the company you want to see.
I need to save the report in excel or pdf for ALL the listed companies. I need to email some of them.
How can I do that? I looked around the Delivers and the Publisher, but I wasn't successful.
Thanks
Andras Szenci

user10912001, if you still have no answer on your question...
Placing a report and a prompt to a dashboard (as you described you have done it), you can clearly see a button in left-down field of a dashboard
!http://lh6.ggpht.com/_7E85bAvCFxg/Sj8oKflJ8WI/AAAAAAAAAHE/gvH2bpnoJWY/2009-06-22_104330.png!
where you have a .pdf and .html format to print.
Once you choose "Edit dashboard" in the list after clicking the button "Page option" (up-right side in the dashboards) you then click on the "Properties" button of the report (you want to have an option "Download to Excel") and choose "Report Links..." (where you checked an option "Download". Here you are - you have a link (bottom ao your report) where you have option to get the output in Excel format.

Query for report generation and email alert

Hi,
I do have a requirement in my project like the following.
1. We do have multiple interfaces sending request to one of the target Webservices
2. Receiving response back from Webservices
3. Also logging the same using log4J
My requirement is to filter out response messages based on particular interface(Lets say Order status) using name/ timestamp for particular day, save/append all responses in to a file and should send an email report at a given point of time.
Report has to generate once in a day E.g Time: 00:00 AM every day.
Is that possible to achieve the same through ALSB(Aqua Logic Service Bus). Please help us in implementing this requirement.
Thanks in advance,
Krishna

You probably concentrate too much on OSB. I see two issues:
1. Appending everything into a single file. I have never tried file transport, so I don't know if this is possible or not, but looking at documentation I don't think its possible:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13159_01/osb/docs10gr3/httppollertransport/transports.html#wp1081043
2. As far as I know there is no support for scheduling in OSB.
I don't know your situation and requirements, but you should rather implement your reporting logic outside of OSB. For example you can filter response messages in OSB and "log" them through a logging web service (service callout in alsb). That service could accumulate your report in a file and send it with the first request each day. This approach could eliminate usage of any scheduling component.
Personally, if I were you I would thing about my infrastructure logging capabilities on proxy server, http server or whatever is in use. Combined with unix cron daemon, the solution could be very easy and straight-forward.

How to email reports via SMTP server FORMS AND REPORTS 6i and databse 8i

Dear All,
through reports builder reports are build but i need to email reports via SMTP server is it possible in 6i are not?if yes the how please rep asap

If it will be a scheduled report, you can create a batch file to run report with reqd parameters and generate it's pdf in a oracle directory.
Then schedule the batch file on oracle database pc, (thru task scheduler if OS is windows),
Then a email procedure will be required which will pick up the pdf from oracle directory, attach it and send mail.
Even the email procedure can be scheduled thru oracle job, but the OS batch schedule time and Oracle Job time should be handled as some gap will be needed between the two.
As for the email smtp procedure with attachments, you can find one in this forum or try googling it.

Render and Email SSRS reports via SOAP/Web Services

Hi all
Running SQL Server 2008 R2 RTM and wondering if the ReportExecution2005.asmx web service can be used to render AND email a report all within the web service (ie. Not wanting to render the report and then having to email it manually). Since RS has the capability
to email via report manager schedule, wondering if this can be achieved programmatically.
George

Hi George,
In Reporting Services, it supports us to use ReportExecution2005 web service to render a report as MHTML or other formats. And we can use ReportingService2010 web service to subscribe and delivery report. The Reporting Services Execution
Web service allows developers to programmatically process and render reports from a report server.
The ReportingService2010 Web service allows developers to programmatically create a subscription in the report server database.
To process a specific report and render it in the specified format, we can use the “Render” method in the ReportExecutionService. To create a subscription, we can use “CreateSubscription” method in ReportingService2010.
References:
Report Server Web Service Methods
ReportingService2010.CreateSubscription Method
ReportExecutionService.Render Method
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

How can I print and email a report with a logo?

How can I print and email a report with a logo?
Is this possible??

hi ravikant!
im talking about reports, not forms.
i bet se78 is for forms and oaer is for report.
because my logo is displayed on screen, using html-top-of-page.
but at the time of printing and email, internally, alv grid is converted into alv list, and alv list doesn't support having a logo.
That's my know-how of the situation.
Do you have a way with it???
Please advice.
Thanks a lot!

Customized Email Content for Firefighter login and Log report

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to customize the email content (subject as well as body) for Firefoghter login and log report notifications. This is required on GRC AC 5.3 SP10.
Thanks

No, D P. You can not customize FF emails. They are hard coded in the ABAP programs.

How to run and email a report from SSIS

Hi guys
I need to set up an SSIS package that will run a standard report and email the results.
I have sorted out the email side of the job, but need to know if/how I can run BPC reports from SSIS.
Has anyone done anything similar, or have any tips/pointers?
Thanks
Craig

Hi Craig,
I have never done this, but I doubt this is something possible in a standard way, or if it's feasable, could be very difficult to set up.
In fact, BPC works over Webservices, and it should probably be possible to use an ActiveX task inside our SSIS package and code something in VB there, referencing some API...
In any case, why don't you use the Offline Distribution Wizard for that? It's doing exactly what you're expecting.
Kind Regards,
Patrick
