Product Overview
The cViewSERVER Crystal Reports scheduler enables you to
easily and affordably automate production of your
Crystal Reports. cViewSERVER runs on a server or workstation and
refreshes your Crystal Reports on the schedule you select.
cViewSERVER can email your Crystal Report as an attachment, print the
Crystal Report on any system printer, or save the refreshed Crystal Report file
in a variety of formats.
cViewSERVER installs and runs as a Windows Service.
It runs in the background and does not require a user to be logged in to Windows. The cViewSERVER service may be set to start
automatically whenever Windows starts or may be started manually when needed.
cViewSERVER includes one copy of the cViewREMOTE schedule
management client. cViewREMOTE is installed with cViewSERVER and acts
as the user interface to the report schedule. It allows configuration
of data sources, report parameters, and output destinations.
Additional cViewREMOTE licenses may be purchased to allow schedule
management from remote PCs.
cViewSERVER may
also be used in combination with ReCrystallize Pro
to allow even lengthy Crystal Reports to display instantly on the
web.
Key Features
Scheduling
 | cViewSERVER can
schedule reports to run at a specific
date and time or at regular intervals of minutes, hours, days,
weeks, or months.
|
| The Business Calendar feature enables you to
schedule reports only on business days (Monday-Friday or
Monday-Saturday) or during business hours (such as every 45 minutes
between 9am and 4pm). You can also specify a list of holidays on which
reports will not run.
|
| The Dynamic Dates features allows you to
automatically set date parameters in a report based on the current date.
An example would be a scheduled report that always uses the current
accounting period start and end dates in the report. Calendar support
includes calendar months, 4 week periods and 4-4-5 week accounting.
|
| Each report in the schedule shows last run time, last
run message, and next run time.
|
| In addition to Crystal Reports, cViewSERVER allows
scheduled execution of batch files, executables, and other commands.
|
| cViewSERVER provides web accessible status and log
pages.
|
| Notification messages may be set for successful
and/or unsuccessful report completion. |
Report Output
| Export file formats include Crystal Reports (.rpt), Microsoft Word
(.doc),
Rich Text (.rtf), Excel (.xls), HTML (.htm), and PDF
(.pdf).
|
| Date Stamping allows you to use the date and time in
the filename of the saved report output. Simply include %d, %t or
%h in the disk file name to include the date, time or hour the report
was processed.
|
| Reports may be sent by email using any of the
available export formats.
|
| Full HTML email support allows cViewSERVER to send a
report as HTML in the body of an email message, eliminating the need to
open attachments.
|
| Direct SMTP support enables cViewSERVER to work with
virtually any email system. SMTP Spooling allows
cViewSERVER to queue reports when the SMTP server is busy or
unavailable, ensuring all reports are delivered.
|
| cViewSERVER's printer control feature allows you to
control the number of copies and page orientation when printing reports.
|
Report Input
| cViewSERVER supports discrete and multi-value report
parameters.
|
| The Multi-run feature allows the same report to be run
multiple times with different input parameters and/or destinations.
For example, this would allow running the same Crystal Report so that it
includes different data and a different destination email address for
each salesperson -- all with one scheduled event. The Multi-run
control file is editable text and may be shared among different reports.
|
| List management allows you to maintain an external
list of values or destinations for a group of scheduled reports.
For example, you can use a List to send one report to several printers
-- just specify the List file as the output destination.
|
| cViewSERVER works with reports and subreports that
require secure database login. cViewSERVER stores database user
names and passwords in an encrypted file on the server, allowing these
reports to run unattended. Reports and subreports that log in to
multiple databases using different credentials are also supported. |
