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.
