RE: how can i schedule reports in cognos
By using Cognos Schedular one can schedule the running reports in Impromptu to execute and save it in desired format.
By using Cognos MACRO script language the reports can be executed and distributed to recipients by using mail applications.
Compiled Cognos MACROs can be scheduled using Cognos Schedular.

There are three types of Schedules in Cognos

  1. Run with Option Single time Scheduling
  2. Recurring Scheduling U can specify u r date and time here
  3. Job or Batch Scheduling A Job is a group of reports which can be scheduled at the specific date and time.
