Retrieving reports without report viewer

Hi,

I am doing a POC using Stimulsoft Reports.Web for our new project and one of the requirements is to be able to generate and print (or saveas to particular format) the report without having to preview it in the report viewer. I am planning to do it using WCF. The reason why it need to be in the WCF Layer because the reports are to be generated based on a given schedule. Would this be possible?

Thanks,

Ay-Ay

Hello,

Yes, it is possible. You can export the report in any format on the server side by code without using the report viewer.

Thank you.
