Post by: sg on 12 Aug 2009 04:58:11 AM
Hi ,

I need to schedule few reports in report studio and the reports goes to few business users. I want to attach a document along with it. Is there a way to attach a document when scheduling?

Kindly let me know if there is a way. Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated.

hi

yes you can attach the scheduled report to your email while you are scheduling
under option select Override the default values then
select Send a link to the report by email  then click on  Edit the options...
there you can select to send link or attachment

Thanks for the reply. I do not want to attach the scheduled report. Once i schedule , the report goes to the user as attachment.

My requirement is, I need to attach some other word document as attached file and it should go to the users along with scheduled report. Is this possible?

Thanks,
Sg

Hi,

If ur report output is 'HTML' then u can provide a hyper link in the report output.
So when the user executes the report he can click on the hyperlink and access the word document also.
