Hi All,

Currently we only allow report distribution to the Library. We have some very large reports being run by our customers...over 16GB...yes, Gigabytes.

The Zip feature in RCaster only specifies it to be used for email.

Is there a way to accomplish zipping particular reports based on our own criteria?
For example:
- Particular Report Names
- Size of Report
- Distribution method
- Output format

Ideally we would like to have various combinations of the options above:
For example:
- Emailed reports with output types (COMMA, HTML, DHTML, XLSX) over 3MB
- Any distribution method with output types (DOCX, PPTX, COMMA, CSV, HTML, etc.) and over 10MB

Another option that would work would be for us to specify from the FEX itself that it needs to be zipped (although global rules are always better).

Any options that currently exist out there for us?

Thanks!

Kevin

Hi kmarshba,

This is a friendly follow-up regarding your question - Zip scheduled reports to the Library or for any reason.

While we wait to see if any of the members have ideas for you, I will go ahead and contact our Technical Team to see what they suggest.

I will update you once I have a response.

When you set up a library schedule you can select "compress stored report"
