Report

Hello Kacper,

There are a couple of options available to realize this, e.g.

(a) Setting up a report schedule that generates a specific report every day. By including the creation date in the report header or report footer you can easily identify when the report was generated.

(b) Alternatively, you can select a report start and report end date in the column definition of your report. Yet, this would require that you setup / modify the report on a daily basis unless you include a column for each day.

Hope this helps,

Ludwig

Report

Hi Ludwig,

let me repeat my question. I would like to create a report every day which will contain data from previous day. It means Report day - 1. Today is 2016/02/24 and data included in the report should be 2016/02/23.

Report

Hello Kacper,

I believe MR is not the perfect tool for this purpose as you can only limit the dates in the column structure via the start and end date.

That is a nightmare as you would (a) have to change the report setup permanently or (b) setup a report with many columns that separates the postings made on each day.

What do you try to achieve actually by generating a Report based on individual days? Do you want to reconcile / check something? If so, I believe there might be better Tools available than the Management Reporter.
