Hint and tips

  • Alert for reports ready to view:

    To avoid having to constantly check the report queue for new reports, you can set the option Automatically check for new SRS reports every nn minutes to display a desktop alert when a report is ready to be viewed in the Report Queue.

    You can either click on any hyperlink to view the report, or view the Report Queue to see all unread reports.

  • SYSPRO Avanti:

    The SYSPRO 8 Reporting Host Service is responsible for pushing online printing to your browser session and these reports take precedence when printing.
