Defining Report Definition Output Path

See Configuring the Enterprise Server jde.ini File

If you use the enterprise server jde.ini to define the path for archiving, all the report definitions will be saved in same path defined in enterprise server jde.ini file.

You can choose to define a customized output path for a specific report definition output using the Report Definition Server Mapping application (P95641).

Note: If the path is not defined for a report definition in P95641, the output file is stored in the default path defined in the enterprise server jde.ini.

To define output path for the report definition, access the Report Definition Server Mapping application (P95641).

  1. Click Add.

  2. On the Report Definition Archive Paths form, complete the following fields:

    Field

    Description

    Report Definition

    Enter the report definition for which you want to define the output path. You can use the visual assist to select a report definition.

    Server Name

    Enter the name of the server.

    User/ Role

    Enter user/role.

    Path

    Enter the path where you want the output file to be saved.

    Note. If you enter a folder name in the path that does not exist, the folder structure is created and the output is stored at the specified path. For example, if you enter C: /JDE/RDOutputStore in the Path field and if the folder RDOutputStore does not exists, then the folder with the name RDOutputStore is created and the output file is stored in the path specified.

    If you enter an invalid path, the report definition job will end in FD status. You can access P95630 application and select View Delivery option and then, select Re-Deliver Output option to correct the path and save the file again.
