SAVE SCHEDULES
The eG Configuration management also provides a useful report scheduling capability that automates the process of printing and/or mailing specific reports (to specific individuals) at pre-defined intervals. You can configure schedules for the current and changed configuration reports by clicking on the that is available in the CONFIGURATION and in the CONFIGURATION CHANGE:DETAILED pages, respectively.
Using this scheduling capability, you can ensure that key decision makers/managers can readily access critical configuration and change information. To configure the schedule for a report do the following:
- Provide a name against the Schedule Name. The name will be validated only if the string ends with _cf.
- Next, specify how frequently the report is to be e-mailed by by choosing the appropriate option from the Mail list box. You can receive reports on daily, weekly or monthly basis according to your choice of option from this list box.
- Then, provide the e-mail ids to which the reports have to be delivered in the Mail Id text box. A comma-separated list of e-mail ids can be provided in this text box.
This list box will be disabled by default. To enable it, set the Enable Schedule Print option to True in the MISC_ARGS section of the eg_configtests.ini file. By enabling it and by selecting appropriate time period from the Print list box, you will be allowed to schedule printing of the report.
- Then, indicate the Schedule type. You can indicate when report scheduling is to occur by picking an option from the Schedule type list. To generate schedule reports at the end of every day, pick the Day end option from this list. To generate schedule reports at a configured time every day, pick the Any time option from this list, and then indicate the exact time of generation using the Schedule at time controls that then appear.
- Finally, click on the Save button to schedule the report.
To delete the schedule, use the SCHEDULES page, that can be accessed by clicking on the Schedules menu option.
