Appreciate the valuable suggestions and quick response.Thanks!.

After all my R&D now got solution for the above, and finally It works with creating a batch file as below lines in it,

Batch File:

---------------

"C:\Program Files (x86)\NPrinting\Client\NPrinting.exe" /NprintingFile "D:\Nprinting\Nprinting Files\Sentry_Report.nsq" /Job "EOD Collateral Summary Job"

If I execute the above created batch file then expected Job or report got executed successfully without necessary to run it from N-Printing designer.

Thanks for all your support and it helps me to think wise in testing my use case.

Cheers,

Mahesh

Hi Mahesh,

You can use QlikView's report builder.  On the menu bar click on Reports>Edit Reports ... and you can create and export your report.

Hi Carlos,

My question is not to create a new report in Report editor, how to run the report which is created in Nprinting designer with using any external files like batch or xml ,etc.

Thanks,

Mahi

To run multiple jobs or report in a single batch file then copy the entire line in next empty line and just replace the Job name as per required,

EX:

Batch File:

---------------

"C:\Program Files (x86)\NPrinting\Client\NPrinting.exe" /NprintingFile "D:\Nprinting\Nprinting Files\Sentry_Report.nsq" /Job "EOD Collateral Summary Job"

"C:\Program Files (x86)\NPrinting\Client\NPrinting.exe" /NprintingFile "D:\Nprinting\Nprinting Files\Sentry_Report.nsq" /Job "Cash and Accrual Job"

The above jobs executed in sequential order.

Thanks,

Mahesh

Hello,

When my .nsq project uses a "qvp:\\" file as input, it can't launch the job.

It opens NPrinting, opens QV, close QV and close NPrinting without exporting anything.
