Can Report Server auto send out reports?

Hello,


I have never used this software, but had a question on its capabilities. I have several reports that are generated in Excel each day on another server. What I want to do is create an automated email to several people once that report is generated, have it open a simple workflow which indicates that they have received and then approve it once they have reviewed it, and keep a log of that activity.

Is this software capable of doing this? If not, does anyone know of another open source software that can?

Thanks,

Re: Can Report Server auto send out reports?

Hi RickOShay,

welcome to the ReportServer forum.

yes, ReportServer features quite an advanced scheduling mechanism, please check here for this: https://reportserver.net/en/guides/user … cheduling/
You can send reports per email, or to a teamspace. You can even send them only when a condition holds (conditional scheduling). If you need to send them to a custom place, (e.g. file system, ftp, etc) you can use the "Send To" feature ( https://reportserver.net/en/guides/scri … s/Send-To/ )

You can also use scripting for this, since scripts can also be scheduled: https://reportserver.net/en/guides/script/main/

If you have any more questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Regards,
Eduardo
