Running multiple Reports under Reportcaster with output going to Library

I want to run an overnight suite of reports with the outputs going to the report library.

I thought it would be possible to run the reports one after the other as tasks within the job, but reportcaster permits only one task if the output is to go to the report library.

If I run a single .fex that produces many outputs as my single task then only the first output is stored in the report library.

Do I have to create a job for each report which will not be very neat, or is there a way round this problem?

Yep. If they are completely different reports, then you will have to create a schedule for each. If the reports are the same but with different agruments, then you can burst them into Library.

Han,

Please add which version you are on in your signature on your profile.

If you are on 7.1...they now have a cloning option on Reportcaster that is a big help...you used to have to start every new one from scratch.
