Automating Qlickview jobs

Hi,

I have a qlikview job which will generate a QVD file when I run it.

Using this qvd file I have a dashboard which gets updated.

I would like to see if there is a way I can schedule this to run every morning for me.

Thanks-

Hi,

You can use Qlikview publisher to schedule the reload time, or else create a batch file and schedule it in windows scheduler the batch file should contain the following command

[ path ]Qv.exe[ { switch } documentfile ]

Ex:

C:\> QV.exe /r FileName.qvw

Hope this helps you.

Regards,

Jagan.

Thank you,

Yes it helped me.

Now how would I schdule a task which is callig a qvd file and updating the dashboard view.

What would I have to put in the batch script ?

Also can I save that file with todays data variable ?

so I want to save that file as output_daily_date

where date = todays date.

Bsically my code is right now

Load

abc,

xyz

from test.qvd

and this result should reload the data from this qvd and save the file with the name I want with a data variable.

Hi Raj,

     I believe you have Two QlikView Application.

     One to generate the QVD and another QlikView Dashboard.

     If yes then you need to schedule both the application one after another.
