Macro in "OnPostReload" not working in reload schedule

I have a macro that would send out email. It is being triggered in "onPostReload" trigger. When I reload the document from desktop client, the macro is triggered and i get the mail. But the same is not working when the document is reloaded during the scheduled reload?

is it a known issue? What is work around

Also, is there a means to determine whether the reload is successful or failed in the macro

Thanks

That trigger does not work when scheduled using the distribution service.  This is a know limitation.

Do you have publisher installed?

No. We are not using publisher. I had scheduled the reload in QEMC console > Documents > reload.

I also try to reload in a batch file, executing from cmd prompt. No mail sent.

Thanks

If you scheduled it through the QEMC, you are using the distribution service. 

What command line exe did you call when you tried using a batch file?  If you use the "qv.exe /r" it should work, but the "QlikviewDistributionService.exe -r" should produce the same results as scheduling with the QEMC.

QlikTech doesn't allow this functionality with the QDS, encouraging users to spend extra and purchase the functionality that Publisher provides.
