Job Scheduler

Sumit_Gupta

Hi,

My Client is on NAV 4.0 SP3. They have some Dataports. I have the follwoing questions:

1) Can we automate the Dataport run with Job Scheduler. If yes, then how? Can you please direct me to some relevant document which informs how to automate the Job Schedulers in NAV 4.0 SP3
2) The Client has two types of Dataports:
i) Without input Parameters
ii) With Input Parameters like "First Date of the Month","End Date of the Month". Can we use automation of jOB Scheduler in such case.

Kindly let me know this at the earliest.

Thanks and Best Regards,
Ratna.

Look at the Service Management (I think) documentation on CustomerSource or PartnerSource.

You'll have to wrap your dataports inside of a codeunit in order to use them with the job scheduler. I can't remember how the out-of-the-box job scheduler handles parameters, so hopefully someone else will speak to that.

Good luck

And you will not be able to use a NAS. The NAS doesn't support dataports. If you want to use the NAS, you need to convert your dataports to reports or codeunits using the FILE-datatype to read/write files.
