Hello All,

I am new to QlikView. I have a requirement to schedule a task to run automatically on every week saturday and 1st day of every month based on data value change in DB table (for ex - date) . I don't want to go for EDX option.

Please let me know how to implement the above.

Regards

Anand

Thanks for the reply

Weekly and monthly job has to run automatically after the DB load completion and update a value in a table (for ex - date) . Not to run at a specified time

Why wouldn't you use the EDX option?

I am not able to trigger tasks via EDX in QMC. Please let me know, what i am missing or is there anything wrong in the steps that i followed.

I have downloaded QMSEDX_CommandLine_v1 from Using EDX in QlikView 11 and configured the tasks in QMC as below

1. Task set to schedule on External Event in QMC

2. Entered password for the task

3. Downloaded QMSEDX_CommandLine_v1 from Using EDX in QlikView 11 and extracted the file s to to C:\Program Files (x86)\QMSEDX_CommandLine

4. Created batch file to trigger the task and saved the bacth file in C:\Program Files (x86)\

Batch file script :

"C:\Program Files (x86)\QMSEDX_CommandLine_v1\QMSEDX.exe" -task="Report Name.qvw" -qms="QVServerName" -password="XXXX"

5. I ran the batch scrip by double clicking on the file / right click run as administrator. The command line pop up page flickers and immediately disappeared.

6. The task did not run in QMC
