Report Distribution with non-CGI program
|
You can now create a non-CGI program in Clover which is required to schedule reports in Clover that were previously only possible when using WebSmart or customizing the Clover templates. Users can now create their own programs to automatically distribute reports through a scheduled job. And reports can be scheduled to be e-mailed or saved to the IFS as spreadsheets or as HTML or text files.
