Business Reporter Report as PDF


Forum|alt.badge.img+3

BR Reports refuse to be rendered as a PDF although these settings were done:

 

 

There was an issue with PDFs which should have been resolved by BR version 23.2.0 (EIZBR-2617), but I am using version 24.1.1 in this case and still I am getting would-be PDFs as ordinary Excel workbooks.

Hi @VolkerW 

When you download the report from IFS Cloud, it will be downloaded as an Excel file. However, when you open the report, it will be converted into a PDF file.

Make sure you have Business Reporter tool installed in your machine.

Hope this helps you

Thank You
Best Regards

That would be nice, but - no, it doesn’t.

Correct me if I’m wrong here but isn’t the Business Execution Server meant especially for those who don’t have the client installed? I do have it (where else should the report come from) but I should get the PDF without it. By the way: I only get XLS files regardless what I do with the client.

Thanks, Volker
