Hi,

My users would like to receive their reports in specific times (every day, every hour ...), they want to define the "publish" method: mail, share point  ,...

Does Telerik have built in support for scheduled mechanism like this ?

Thanks,
Roni

Hi Roni,

Thank you for your interest in Telerik Reporting.

Currently Telerik Reporting is an embedded reporting engine and not a standalone report server, and usually it is part of a Desktop,Web or Silverlight Application. Thus we don't have out of the box support for scheduling reports but you can implement your own scheduling functionality.

Generally to export a report, you can use the RenderReport method of the ReportProcessor class. This method converts the contents of the report to a byte array in the specified format, which you can then use with other classes such as MemoryStream or FileStream . For more information and example check out the Exporting Report Programmatically help article.

Kind regards,
Peter
