JTB FlexReport 7.0 Introduces Automatic Chart Creation

JTB FlexReport 7.0 comes with the functionality to schedule creation of license usage charts. One usage of this functionality is to create an intranet web page that always shows the usage from the last 7 days for the main features (products) on your license server. Support for Vertex Systems licensed products is also added.

Downloads here. See also the Upgrade tips. Customers with maintenance have access to this release at no extra cost.

See the revision history for more details on this release.

Here is from the documentation of the chart client.

Auto Reports tab
With this functionality you can have reports automatically created as PNG image files at specified recurrence pattern.
This requires that the JTB FlexReport Auto Chart Service is running.
To set up a report first manually create the report you like to use.


Specify the recurrence pattern if the report should be created on an hourly, daily or monthly basis.
Hourly settings allow a report to be created multiple times per hour.

 
Daily settings allow a report to be created at specified days and time.


Monthly settings allow a report to be created on a monthly basis.


The Settings panel explained.
File Save Path is a path located where the Auto Chart Service is running. You can run this client on any computer but the report file will be created locally on the server. Use Validate Path to ensure it is correct.
If the report should overwrite itself each time use a fixed file name checkbox.
Enter a file name that is the basis for the report file. If fixed file name is not used the file name will have a suffix with the date and time. For example AutoCADperDay (2012-02-13 08.52.12).png where AutoCADperDay is the file name.
Specify also the size for the image.
When ready press Save Settings.


The report will show up on the Report List panel and can also be deleted from there.
