I'm not sure if this is possible but what i'm trying to do is have an HTML page with buttons that launch a composer report.

I would like to have this so that some administration staff just can go to a tab within the BI portal and run a composer report which his pre built for meets etc.

Would anyone know the best way to approach this?

...?

Just make an HTML page in the HTML composer. Add buttons. And add hyperlinks?

Not sure if this is what you want but you can call a launching fex that will run your HTML Composer page. Your button can have a hyperlink to the launching fex.

-* File launch_composer_page.fex

-HTMLFORM my_composer_page.htm

Hi Mighty Max I will give this a shot today and get back to this thread.

Hi Susannah,

By composer report I mean a fex with multiple reports so that the output can be PDF

I could be wrong but it sounds like a Compound report rather than Composer report..
