Export via ViewerFX

[assd]

Hello,

I need to store the export file e.g. PDF on both server and client. Ideally in a way that ViewerFX exports automatically on the server when it is opened and still giving the user the option to export on the local machine.

Also some automation would be helful to skip the viewer mode - all ViewerFX in a way to:
- Print straight away and close viewer automatically
- Export straight away and close viewer automatically
- Email straight away and close viewer automatically

Currently I also struggle with this config.xml setting:
<Exports>
<Destination>Local</Destination>

What is the value to server export? Both 'Server' or 'Host' don't do anything.

Thanks Andreas

Hello Andreas,

I need to store the export file e.g. PDF on both server and client. Ideally in a way that ViewerFX exports automatically on the server when it is opened and still giving the user the option to export on the local machine.

Currently I also struggle with this config.xml setting:
<Exports>
<Destination>Local</Destination>

The possible values for this option:
Local, Remote, LocalAndRemote

Also some automation would be helful to skip the viewer mode - all ViewerFX in a way to:
- Print straight away and close viewer automatically
- Export straight away and close viewer automatically
- Email straight away and close viewer automatically

Unfortunately at the moment there is no option for automatic closing the viewer after such operations.

Thank you.

Hello Vladimir,

Thank you (especially for the LocalAndRemote). Closing the viewer would be nice-to-have. More important would be to be able to print/export/mail straight away e.g. to print an invoice (built via the report designer).

Hello Andreas,

Unfortunately exporting without the viewer is not possible, because the report is rendered on the client side using a Flash application.
There is an alternative - utility ExportsFx, discussion and solutions you can read in this thread of the forum:

Thank you.

Hi Vladimir,

Thank you. I'm fine that reports are created on the client side via the Flash application. I just want to save the user the additional clicks to print, export or email. So, calling the viewer with an additional parameter to start printing or exporting instantly would help. I have seen that there is also the option to buy with full source code. Does this mean that we would be able to access the Flash code and be able to add such features by ourselves?

Hello, Andreas.

Yes, if you buy our source code, you will get all our projects and will be able to do any changes in it.

Thank you.
