Hi good people,
I have a question that might sound stupid but anyhow I didn't find an answer in the web. I build BO reports for various levels within the company. However I don't have any rights regarding user management and publishing. Everytime i want to change some of the published reports, i have to request the responsible department to publish the new version. Which is OK but now I have a report that changes every day meaning the numbers change. This report is used by 150 people.
So each day those people have to go to the public BO Folder, click on refresh, wait for 3 minutes and look at the figures. From a user perspective it would be much more convenient to refresh the report over night so the user just has to open the report in the public folder without refreshing.
So the process i would need (which sounds quite simple) is that the BO report is scheduled at some point over night and exported to the public BO foders (the one you see in Webi below "My Documents"). However the existing report (the old one) should be overwritten so the user only sees one report in the folder (but this report has the latest numbers).
Our IT department (the one who are responsible for publishing) tell me that this can't be achieved. However for me it looks like a common requirement. Is there any possibility to schedule a publication and save it to the public BO folders?
Thanks
Stefan
