How to automate monthly report generation #7

Closed onadebi closed 4 years ago

onadebi commented 6 years ago

HI, is there a way to run seal report on a Windows Server 2012 to generate multiple reports from SQl Server database on a monthly basis. I ask this because the only implementations I've seen from the available online documentations are through the Report Designer and using with a web application project. Please an urgent respond would be appreciated. Thanks.

Yes, the task scheduler can do that for you, it relies on the Windows Scheduler, just create an output and a schedule in your report using the Report Designer.

okay. thanks for the swift response. So from what you just wrote, I assume the seal report along side the Report Designer have to be installed on the server; right?

Yes, it is better to install the Server Manager, Report Designer to configure your Server and Reports...and the Task Scheduler to execute them in batch.
