Application Management question

bRahms

Hi,

I'm trying to do the following:
Let a Windows user (fe: administrator) open a navision client and let it run automaticly a report via a Scheduled Task.

Therefor I added the administrator to the windowslogins, added the ST with administrator to run it and adjusted the CU 1 with the following code:

IF USERID = 'ADMINISTRATOR' THEN
REPORT.RUN(50149);

this works like a charm, except that when the report has finished, it just closed the report and not the fin.exe process. Is there a way to fix this?
In the meantime we added another scheduled task (kill fin.exe) that kills the process after three hours, but we want to get rid off this ST.

Thanks in advance!

Use SendKeys to exit NAV after the report has run. You'll have to use REPORT.RUNMODAL instead of REPORT.RUN, because it should run after your report has finished.

See Automated Keystokes

Why not use Application server to make the process full-automatic?

and BTW:

Do not use REPORT.RUN(50149);

But use REPORT.RUN(REPORT::"The Report");

It is a lot better for merging later on.

Best is to use

But use REPORT.RUN(REPORT::"50149");

and next time you will open the object it will be automatically

But use REPORT.RUN(REPORT::"The Report");

you do not need to go through the list or type the report name...
