Re: [RDD] Automate Report

[Lorne Tyndale]

Mark,

You can certainly automate report generation with rdlogmanager - it can
run from either a command prompt or the GUI.

The best option is to first figure out what command line you'll need to
run from a shell, once you've done that you can put it into a RN macro
and schedule it through RDCatch.

To figure out what parameters you'll need to pass, from a shell do a:

man 1 rdlogmanager

it'll give you the list of options available.  You can either have it
create new logs for future days or generate reports for previous days.

Hope this helps.

[RDD] Automate Report

[Mark Murdock]

I'm not real "up" on macros and cron jobs and such, but I'm wondering if there 
is a way to have a report automatically generated at a certain time every day? 
I've designed a Technical Playout Report that shows everything that aired on a 
certain date, and I would like to have that produced every day for the previous 
day. Is there a way to do this with a macro? I don't see a macro in the manual 
that would do this.

Thanks,
