Hi, I’m using the Auto Print feature in the standard data directives to automatically email reports. Good thing is that it works. However, I’m trying to email these reports at a specific time such as midnight. Is this possible? And if so, any ideas on how to get started?

You could use the Ice.SysTask table to kick off your data directive. It would have to coincide with another scheduled task, like MRP or whatever task you have scheduled.

I am trying to mass email Sales Order Acknownledgement reports for all orders that have ‘Auto-Print Ready’ in OrderHed checked. This task needs to be done at a specific time such as midnight. So I need some kind of directive that will allow me access to the report for a specific order number and al…

[image] I imported the UIRpts.SalesAck.dll through menu maintenance and added this. I tried using it and it works if you want to send one massive pdf of all the reports. But there is no feature where I could send a separate email per customer with their respective report.

Do you have the Advanced Print Routing module? APR will allow you to break the report up into smaller pieces and email those.

Adam, this sounds a heck of a lot better than what I’m doing right now for twice-daily BAQ reports. Do you have a link handy for that code, or a hint at where I can find it?

Sure Ashley. Here’s some generic code from a post I can’t find (I’ve changed it to use the ttResults table that is available in the GetList method of a UBAQ Directive). It sends a standard email. This code won’t email a report, but it shows how you can pull in data from a UBAQ that could be later …

Thank you! The reports tell people they have tasks to complete in ECOs. Currently, whenever a new employee is added to the process, I set the report to recurring, choose the morning schedule, filter on the employee’s salesrep codes, and fill out the email info. Then I repeat for the afternoon sched…

Phew! Sorry I asked haha, my head kinda hurts. The things we do for reports.

How/when does your data directive get fired? You could put the report generation on a schedule. You can set them up in System Agent Maintenance.
