We use Visual CUT from Millet Software.

Inexpensive, works well for us. It can email, combine PDF, export in many
formats. I'm darn happy to have it...

The only thing is that I can't (or just don't know how to) get the reports
to run from the AR server because as far as I can tell, they are in the
database. I have to save them out and then I can automate the reports.

Oh well...

Jim

** 
We've been using CrystalDesk and send out about 30 reports daily via email
with the report attached.  It is a very reasonably priced product.  We have
about 80 reports scheduled overall.  These go to internal users and our
external customers.
 
We are Windows 2003 server, I've used it with both ars 5.1.2 and 7.0.1. 
Although since we upgraded to 701 it doesn't work on the production server
so I have the dev server instance pointed to the production server.  I don't
feel real comfortable with that and I wasn't able to get any assistance from
crystaldesk.com  At some point we'll go to Crystal Report server which is
quite a bit more expensive but now that we have so many reports and depend
on it I think we need to be more  supportable.

This was first sent out in September 2007 but didn't generate many
responses.

Unlike Howard Richter, the original sender, we are using:
Windows Server 2003
MS SQL 2000
ASR 6.3 patch 21
Help Desk 5.5

I have Crystal Reports version 8.5, 9.0 and 10 at my disposal.

Managers here have a daily Crystal Report report that runs from a link -
works great, managers like.  BUT

Instead of having to use the link, managers would like the report emailed
to them as they are not always in office with Remedy access.

They want this process automated, with the Crystal Report report saved as
a PDF attached to an email, sent by 0500 daily, Monday thru Friday.


Any ideas on how I can generate and attach the report?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Has anyone seen a product or know of a way to automate reports from Remedy
(we are using ServiceDesk 7).

I would even look at creating an escalation, but trying to use out of box.

Thanks to all,
