I created a fex that does some dictionary checks. Things like looking for duplicate values and such. There are essentially 4 reports in the fex. I notice that when I run the fex as a whole, a single html doc opens and each report is stacked atop each other. Thats fine but I would have expected multiple reports to pop open.
Nevertheless I set the fex up to run in reportcaster. When it runs, it sends me an attachment but the attachment only ever contains the first report. I expected to see the four reports stacked atop one another...only get the first one.

ReportCaster distributes only the first report in a focexec. I think you have two options to get around this limitation: 1) separate your reports into 4 separate focexecs and run them as 4 individual tasks in your RC job, or 2) use a parameter (Dialogue Manager variable) in your single focexec to branch to each report and run the same focexec as 4 separate tasks in your RC job, each with the appropriate parameter.

new to this...not sure what a compound report is. I broke my big fex into 4 smaller ones, the RC simply calls each (4 tasks)...seams to work.
