[CLOSED] Trouble Bursting a Simple PDF report through Report Caster
Hi,

I was working on trying to get a report to burst to a distribution list through Report Caster. But everytime I run the Scheduled task, it gives me the following msg:

Starting worker thread
Starting task: Test TradeList
Task type: EDA RPC
Procedure name: bendev/OMEGA_Test
Connecting to server EDASERVE with execution id bechung
Executing focexec.
0 HOLDING PDF FILE ON PC DISK ...
Task finished.
Retrieving distribution list from repository
No report for joli@swifttrade.com with a burst value of 009
No report for bechung@swifttrade.com with a burst value of 079
No report to distribute.

Does this mean that the report itself is empty or are the values for the distribution incorrect?

My .fex looks like this:

TABLE FILE CUSTOMERTRADES
PRINT
Market
TRADERID
ACCOUNT
TRADENO
SIDE
TRADEQTY
SYMBOL
TRADEPRICE
PRINCIPAL
TAKE
MAKE

EXECUTIONDATE

ENDSTYLE
END

Any suggestions to what the problem might be? I have tried to put in the burst values of the distribution list as both '009' as well as 009. But both gave me the same msg.

It means that there are no records found for the value used in the by field.

What if you run the report just without RC?

Do you get pages with the mentioned burst value?
Is it 9 or 009?

THe result I get is 1 large PDF file with all the values as 009 etc. There is no bursting if I run it without the Report caster. Does it need to burst without report caster?

We are getting this same error. We have been running this report for over a year, and when we upgraded to Banner 8, all of our reports are screwed up including the bursting via RC. Please help!

Did they change the formats of files/tables? Did you regenerate the master file descriptions? You'll have to be more precise and detailed about the 'screwed up' symptopms. Smiler
