Schedule Deski reports in infoview

Is there way to schedule a deski report in infoview to run for specific dates in a month.
Like on 1st, 8th and 16th of every month.

Do have another job as a prereq for this report and that job will run 4 times monthly but I need to run the report only three times monthly.

Is this possible??

Thanks!!

Different kind of problem:

One of our users has exported a deski report into Infoview and he has scheduled it there. If he modifies deski report and exports it again with the same name as before, the old schedule still creates reports according to the old report.

So the question is, how can he modify and export the deski report so, that when he exports it, also the earlier created schedules start to use this modified report instance, in other words, current report instance? I feel like this should be kind of default behaviour, but obviously it isn’t.

That is the default. I have never experienced what you are explaining. Is it possible that the report was placed it in a different location (therefore the schedule is not attached to the updated version)?

Ok, that’s good to hear. :slight_smile:

I have to ask the person who has this problem to open the report from the Infoview, edit it and then export it back to Infoview. Maybe he now opens the original report from file system and then he exports that report to Infoview again and again.
