  1. (To run the report automatically from the Extended Operations tab) Select the report definition from System Browser and from the Extended Operations tab, click Execute.
  1. (To run reports automatically from macros, reactions, or graphics) Select either of the following options:
  • The report executes in the background when triggered.
    There is no visual indication that the report is being generated.
    On successful execution, the report is routed to the destination configured in the Report Output Definition such as email, printer, or folder.
    NOTE:
    If you have not configured the destination in the Report Output Definition, the report is routed to the path specified in the Location supervised folder under
    Management System > Servers > Main Server > Report Manager > Report Default Folder. This path must be the relative path of the project and not the full path.
    For example, if the report is to be routed to [Installation Drive]:\[Installation Folder]\[Project Name]\data\Reporting\Reports,
    the following relative path must be specified in the Location field, data\Reporting\Reports.
