Hi Marita,
Here is one way to do it:
1) Create an xx field called xx.days.since.last.run with the following
attributes:
DAT=PINT
LEN=2
VAL=IF{"MIS SCHED MNEMONIC"^MIS.JOB.mnemonic,
VAL=%Z.link(":","MIS","%.MIS.data","MIS")^OLD,
[EMAIL PROTECTED],
VAL=ZZ%O(:,OLD),
VAL=%Z.date.sub(@.today,LRD)}
WITH=START
This VAL attribute connects to your MIS data and stores the last run date in
the local variable called LRD. It then calculates the number of days from then
to the current date. You will need to replace "MIS SCHED MNEMONIC" with the
name of your MIS schedule mnemonic.
2) Use xx.days.since.last.run as Select Field with the Operator GT and the
value "7"
Using the WITH=START Field Attribute will instruct your report to calculate
this value at the start of the report. It will not run if the number of days
since your report last ran is not greater than 7.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Good luck,
Brian Schmit
