[CLOSED] Single Report containing data and graph emailed?

September 17, 2015, 08:11 AM

We have used Report Caster to email reports. Is it possible to have a single WF report with both data AND a graph. We would then burst and email it thru Report Caster.

How would you get both a nicely formatted report of the data and the graph in ONE report? I can see how you can do this on a dashboard by adding each individually...but we would need a single report to email...

A compound report could it be the solution ?

Very simple compound report:

this is all rather interesting but how would Report Caster burst and email such a report?

Right now we have a PDF, the first column is hidden but contains the employee ID. Report Caster bursts and emails based on this column.
I'd like to add a graph to the report following the data...but still have it bursted and emailed.

However the methodolgy shown in this thread, if I understand it correctly is really combining two separate reports into a PDF. Could Report Caster still burst and email it? In fact can Report caster even burst and email a graph? I am usnsure where the burst value would be held...
