Batch
- Major New Feature! Parameter Bursting; This feature allows you to assign multiple values to feed to a single parameter and run a report. This helps by allowing you to set up one job to do multiple tasks. And here's another cool thing... you can assign them manually from the parameter window or you can do it dynamically via a SQL Select statement! For example, let's say you want to run statements for your customers and your "Statement" RPT file has a customer ID to fill in so it filters for that customer. You could create a dynamic SQL-based Expression (Tools, Expressions) to do a Select Customer_ID From Customers Where Send_Statement = 'Y'. Even if that statement returned 10,000 customers, it would STILL only take one job to do it. Once the Expression is created, you simply create a Parameter Bursting batch and assign the Expression to the parameter field in the Job window, Parameters. Now, you may ask, how do I email them the statement? Simple, just create a formula field called jnBurstEmail, put their email field in it, and place it on your report template in the Report Header. When the report runs, it will automagically send the output to their email address.
