I would like to schedule a quick report to run daily. Can this be done in Apps8?
Most of the examples I am finding are for 9 or 10.

Hi Community,
I am also looking for the same
I checked an environment of a customer of mine who is using App 8 SP2.
For this version I can say it is not possible in IFS standard.
You only can use scheduled tasks and scheduled reports (where the reports need to be coded reports *_REP).
From App9 on you could use scheduled sql statements
Foundation1 / Administration Guide / Reporting / Adhoc Reporting / Scheduled Quickrhttps://wit.ifsworld.com/f1docs/apps9/Foundation1/040_administration/250_reporting/020_adhoc_reporting/030_scheduled_quickreports/default.htm
In earlier versions I assume you could create a database method to execute the quick report SQL and send a mail from database directly. The database method you could set permissions on and run it as a scheduled task.
But that would be like a small hard-coded interface functionality.
Kind Regards,
Andi
Thank you Durette, I think that this link is only for apps9 or apps10. In Apps 8 i do not see the same selections as in the screen shots. :-(
This is possible.
You need to use a dynamic database task to execute the report and dispatch the results to the relevant user.
We've done this for both Crystal and SQL Quick Reports.
Give me a shout if this is something you are interested in looking at.
