Thanks for the post @JulesJohnson1
You may be referencing some Qlik NPrinting capabilities here so quick context. Keep in mind that Qlik NPrinting was a stand-alone product - the Qlik Cloud reporting roadmap is evaluating how best to provide an integrated set of reporting capabilities (we aren't reproducing Qlik NPrinting). Interactive use cases like sheet subscriptions (PDF or PPT), Data Alerts, or event Monitored Charts or Collaborative Notes offer integrated user-workflow updates to traditional static file distribution use cases. Today through the Qlik Reporting Service there are two primary advanced report composition types - sheet based reports and tabular reports - see Qlik Help . The roadmap will continue to evolved these capabilities and more..... Now to your feedback…
No overview page in QS to view all tabular reports at once; only way to review a report is by accessing the app associated.
- Yup - with our initial release last month, report tasks are managed within app from task to distribution List to filters and templates. At the moment this is the status view as well.
- For a higher level view those with access to the Management Console can use the Subscriptions area and filter on the Type - Report Microsoft Excel.
- There is room for growth in this area for sure. Post your feedback on ideation - would be great to understand from our Qlik Community what type of overview is required and for who (keeping in mind the Space>App>Task dynamic).
No ability to generate multiple excel files, each with a custom file name.
- Acknowledged - an identified area of improvement.
When sending out emails with a generated report, there is no ability to customize the body of the email. Making us unable to create an automated email for our Material Controllers and Specialists to send direct to suppliers.
- Thank you for the use case reference - more dynamic email authoring is an identified area of improvement - will watch for more feedback in ideation to understand the strength of customer demand
No ability to embed charts or tables into the body of the email.
- Embedded email/html reports is different reporting use case that we continue to evaluate within the broader Qlik Cloud platform offering
- FYI, today you could consider using Qlik Application Automation to embed straight tables in an html body email as part of an automation. More of a developer driven opportunity but a variant of the use cases is possible.
The tabular reports are developer-based, therefore no visibility on other developer made reports. Even within the same team.
- Those users with Can Edit in the Space have access to the App > Prepare Reporting area can go to the Template section and download the report template to get the uploaded version.
- Otherwise, you could also consider using the O365 ecosystem to share templates. Others in your team with the Add-in can simply open the document, connect to the tenant/app, and managed/run previews.
Keep the great feedback coming and let us know how you hands-on experience goes!
Have a look at this post for a short-term look into what is being worked on in Q1 for tabular reporting.
