Error running QlikEntity report

I am discovering the possibilities of a QlikEntity report.

When I create a cycled report that has one chart included is runs fine. (output is PDF no colours ???) 

When I create a cycled report that has one sheet included it does not run

Error message is : WARN: error during report generation: QlikView cannot fullfill request fed43536-7fa5-4dcc-99d0-8405ccb6756f of type Qlik.Reporting.Engine.Messages.Requests.SomethingReportNodeRequest because the parameter OutputFormat has an unsupported value of PDF.

The sheet only contains charts.

Are there conditions to be met for a QlikEntity report ?

Hi,

What do you mean with "(output is PDF no colours ???) "? Could you add some screenshots?

About the second error, I tested in my installation and it worked perfectly. Could you add the steps to reproduce?

About QlikEntity reports refer to https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/May2021/Content/NPrinting/QlikViewEntityReports/Intro-EntityRe.... If you see an object in the list you can add it in a QlikEntity report. 

If you change the output format will it work?

Best Regards,

Ruggero

Herewith the output of the same object. I now see that the pdf even changed the style.

Regarding the error messages: It seems not to be possible to  create a pdf of a complete sheet.

My report contained one object at first, and I could choose pdf as output-type. When I altered my report I ran the same task without looking at the posible output types.

When I now want to change the output type, pdf is not an option (would be nice though :))

Hi,

Creting PDF from QlikEntity reports of Qlik View objects is the only case that uses the PDF printer installed locally. Did you changed its settings? For example from the screenshots it seems it is set to black and white.

The available output formats of QlikEntity reports depends on the type of object you selected and they are the ones you see on the dropdown menu that appears when you add the report in the publish task. For example a QlikView sheet can be exported only as an image.

In the publish task, if you click on the report title you can open again its details and change the iutput format.

Best Regards,

Ruggero
