Subject: Report scheduling and deposit on network drives.
Posted By: bjswift Post Date: 9/7/2005 11:02:20 AM
I have some reports, some of which are server stressful, so I want to give the users the option to schedule when the reports run.  An example will be, every month end (long reports) at 3:00am or so, the report will run with all of the data, save it to a PDF, or whatever file, and be in the person's selected drive choice when he/she comes in that day (8:00am or so).  The reports do not take that long to run, but other processes are going on, and you get the idea....

Anyhow, I can create the UI for the scheduling part, but I am having a problem thinking how to get the reports ran automatically, triggered by time.  I was thinking about using DTS, but I'm not too familiar with DTS.  I'm sure there is a more approiate forum to post this question, but thought there was somthing special that reporting services could offer to help me out, in my automatic report running, and depositing.

Thanks!!!!!

Can you create a subscription to creat the file on a share or something?
