Creating a Script to Run with a Report

Scripting allows you to insert scripts into a report and run them when the report is previewed, printed, or exported. Script commands should be placed within the event handlers of the report objects. When the corresponding event occurs (for example, a mouse click), the script code runs.

Script languages supported include C#, Visual Basic® and J#.

Publishing Reports

Reporting administrators can publish reports that will be useful to their users. When a report is added to the Published Reports container, it is visible to all reporting users the next time they open their console. These reports are generally customized to suit your environment. You can base a published report on a report from the library, or you can create a new report and publish it. If you are a reporting administrator, you can edit reports directly in Published Reports; however, it is recommended that you copy reports to My Reports for editing.

If you have many published reports, you can create categories to group your reports for easier access. For information on copying reports, see Copying Reports . For information on categories, see Working with Report Categories .

To publish a report
•
Copy a report from My Reports or the Report Library into Published Reports.
To update a published report
1
Copy the report from Published Reports into My Reports.
2
Modify the report as needed.
3
When you are ready to publish, delete the old version from Published Reports.
If you skip this step, when you copy the revision back to Published Reports, it will be renamed to Report Name (1).
4
Copy the report from My Reports to Published Reports.

Publishing Reports to Knowledge Portal

Knowledge Portal is a cross product online reporting platform. Once Knowledge Portal is deployed, you can configure Enterprise Reporter for publishing. Reports can then be published, allowing users to generate reports using a web browser instead of the Report Manager.
