Printing a Report

Once you run a report, you can print the entire report, or just specific pages.

Exporting a Report to Other Formats

Before or after running a report, you can export it to one of the following formats:

HTML

MHT

RTF

Excel
•
CSV (with formatting)
This option exports a CSV file that contains formatted information (such as title and description information).

The procedure for exporting a report to a raw, unformatted CSV file, or exporting to other formats is the same, no matter what container the report is in.

Configuring a Default SMTP Server

If you are a reporting administrator, and want to make it easier for reporting users to configure email in Enterprise Reporter, you can configure a default SMTP server. This allows reporting users to choose this server when setting up options such as report delivery. You can provide a server that uses anonymous connections, or one that uses authentication. Users can provide their own credentials when they create a schedule.

To configure a default SMTP server
1
On the Report Manager System Configuration tab, click Configure SMTP server used by Enterprise Reporter.
2
Enter the Host server name or IP address.
3
Enter the Host port number.
4
Select a user account with credentials required to access the mail server by clicking the ellipsis (...) to open the Credential Manager. For more information, see Using the Credential Manager .
If you need to remove the credentials, click Clear.
5
Enter the email address to be used as the sender when testing the connection of the Host configuration.
6
Enter the email addresses to be used as the recipient when testing the connection of the Host configuration.
7
If you want to test the Host configuration, press Click to test your connection.
8
Optionally, adjust the Attachment Size Limit to accommodate the size (in MB) of email attachments that will be sent by the server.

Scheduling Reports

You can create a schedule, or a series of schedules, to run reports. Once you have created a schedule, you can add reports and set the parameters for the reports. You can view a calendar showing when the reports will run based on the schedule. When you are deciding how often to run your reports, make sure you understand how often the data on which you are reporting is collected. Your reporting interval needs to be at least the size of the data collection interval, or there will not be any new information in the reports. For more information on data freshness, see Running Reports . Each schedule card has the option to disable or enable the schedule if the need arises. The Schedule page also contains the option to sort all reports within each schedule by name or by type.

* 
NOTE: Reports can be scheduled from the My Reports container. Reporting Administrators can also schedule reports from the Published Reports container.

When you add a report to a schedule, a link is maintained between the originating report and the scheduled version. Any changes to the report definition and layout will be reflected in all scheduled versions. The originating report path is indicated on the scheduled report card.

* 
NOTE: If you change the parameters in the originating report, the scheduled versions are not updated. If you want to use the new parameters, remove the reports from any schedules, and add the new version. For more information, see Removing Reports from a Schedule and Adding Reports to a Schedule .

You can add the same report to a single schedule more than once, or to different schedules. This allows you to schedule different versions of the report by providing different parameter values. In order to help you keep track of the various versions, you can provide a description of the parameter values. This description also appears on the scheduled report card. Figure 3 shows this information on the scheduled report card.
