Specifying report frequency

You configure report frequency in Endeca Workbench on the Report Generation section of the Application Settings page.

To specify report frequency in Endeca Workbench:

  1. In Endeca Workbench, go to the Application Settings > Report Generation page.
  2. Select a frequency for your reports:
    • For reports generated once a day, check Daily Reports.
    • For reports generated once a week, first check Weekly Reports. Then specify the day that the weekly reports begin on in the drop-down list.
    Note: If you want to generate daily and weekly reports, check both.
  3. Click OK to save your configuration. If you select the report frequency in Endeca Workbench, then Endeca Workbench will automatically provision a host with the alias of webstudio for you, if one does not exist already. This host contains a directory provisioned with an alias of webstudio-report-dir. This is set to the following directory for report storage:
    • On Windows: C:\Endeca\Workbench\workspace\reports\<app name>
    • On UNIX: usr/local/endeca/Workbench/workspace/reports/<app name>
  4. After the directory mentioned in step 3 has been created, manually add daily and/or weekly sub-directories to it. These sub-directories are where Endeca Workbench will look for reports to display.
    Note: The Deployment Template creates these sub-directories for you, as does the report generation script.
