Hello guys,
Please look at the attached example .
All I want is to send the report name "test" to an email.
How can I do that?
Is it possible ?
thanks
David
If you just mean doing it manually, right click on the report, copy to clipboard, image, then paste into the email.
If you mean automatically sending an updated version of the report in an email on a scheduled basis, it's not really directly supported. In version 9.0, you can apparently send reports as PDF files in email. In earlier versions, you'd probably have to cook up a way to automatically export the image, build an email, and attach the image. I have a similar requirement, but I haven't looked at it closely because I'm happy to wait until we upgrade to 9.0, and if it doesn't turn out to be easy, to simply train the user to open up the QlikView file with the report.

We're just getting started with QlikView 9 Report "Bursting". It requires QlikView Server (and Publisher?). You can automatically send out reports based on a schedule. You can also do automatic reloading, reduce data and even use Section Access. It seems to be very powerful. We're just starting to scratch the surface.
You may be able to create a macro that can assist in sending out e-mails. I expect this would be a somewhat manual process (user clicks a button to initiate the e-mail). I've used VB Script to handle it using other applications and by creating an Outlook object (for example) you have control over most of the properties of the e-mail.
Hi, I've have a solution thats sends the email in HTML. You cannot reload the document with Publisher because the publisher doesn't support Macro.
Thanx John,
There isn't really a clever way to do in manualy....
I reload my app with windows Scheduled Tasks, and the email goes away automatic.
The more automated way you have is to create a report in Qlivkiew with the data you want to see.
Then create a macro that will export the report as pdf and send it by email. The macro will print the report using Qlikpdf printer in order to save it in a temporary location. Then the macro will generate an email with the pdf file generated as an attachment.
There are some examples on how to generate this macro on the forum.
do you hav an example on generating the pdf from report in macro?

I'm also looking for an example. Where can I found some?

Since QlikTech have changed the PDF Printer provider the methods have also changed from the 'old' way of manipulating registry keys. I have just posted an example on a seperate thread:
