Scheduling in BIRT [message #172045] Wed, 21 June 2006 04:59 Go to next message

I have a requirement, where basically I need to generate reports every month
end and mail to specified email ID's as HTML .

Based on whatever I know and I have read about BIRT, I know it does not
support scheduling.

I was thinking that I should use some sort of cron job or unix scripts to do
the same.

The problem is how to execute a given report and save the HTML ouput
somewhere, so that my unix script can read that file and email the same.

Is there a way, where we can execute a give rptdesign file through some
scripts etc.

Thanks,
Ashish

You could use the ReportRunner Java program in the ReportEngine download and
call that from a script.
