Hi Expert

I would like to know if there is a way to create an email alert from nprinting that will send when the qmc reload finish?

Thank you a lot

One way I would recommend is to use a conditional report and the condition is the reload date.  For example if the program reloads once a day you can schedule the nprinting job after the reload is to complete - the report would then check the reload date and if today, you would know the application was reloaded.

Anothr way is the have the application create an xml file (see link below) that creates a specified file format and name in an nprinting directory - that file could then be the trigger to have an nprinting report run

I Aran's method will not work for you as described, you can modify the qvw to write out the file as described or you can look and see if the conditional report based on reload date will work

OK.

So:

1. Build a condition which tests to see if the QVW was reloaded. Do this by creating a variable with this expression:
   
   =date(ReloadTime(),'YYYYMMDD')
   
   And in the condition, equate that with:
   
   day(now()) 'YYYYMMDD'

2. Add the condition to your report.
3. This will check to see if the QVW was reloaded and will only send the report if it was reloaded today.

Aran one question:

What would be the frequency that the task would have?

becuase for example, if i run the task and the qvw reload before, ok send the alert from  NPrinting, but if not not send the email and i want  to resend the email until the qvw is reload ok.

For example, is there any way to say to NP that DO THIS TASK UNTIL SEND THE EMAIL, when the email was send, stop the TASK

thank you a lot
