Specifying a location to save a report schedule to the disk

As a TrueSight Smart Reporting - Platform administrator or a component administrator, you can save a report schedule to the reporting server, a local drive, or a Windows shared folder. When you save a report schedule, a report is run at intervals and is automatically saved to the location that you provide in TrueSight Smart Reporting - Platform.

This topic provides instructions to specify a location to save a report schedule.

If you do not specify a location to save the report schedule, by default, the schedule is saved in the <install_location>\appserver\temp folder.

For information about saving a report schedule, see Saving-a-report-schedule-on-a-disk.

If you are a TrueSight Smart Reporting - Platform administrator, you can specify a location to save report schedules for all client organizations in a component or a specific client organization. Reporting users can save reports schedules at the location that you specify. Ensure that reporting users can access the location that you specify to save report schedules.

If you are specifying a shared location to save a report schedule on a Windows computer, see the instructions here.


Warning

Important: Is the System Administrator user added in the client organization?

Ensure that you have added the System Administrator user in the component client organization for which you want to save a report schedule. For more information, see Adding the System Administrator user in the client organization.
