  • 1.  Need to know more on "Scripted Report" option in WIN jobs

    Posted Nov 15, 2019 09:59 AM

    Hello Everyone,

    May I seek some help to understand option "Scripted report" in windows jobs ? How does that work ? 

    By mistake we have used that option for one job & the REPORT object ( child object of the WIN job ) gets Start_impossible with "could not find the log file" error. 

    Standard help file is having the following attribute explanation. So just looking for more details on this.  

    https://docs.automic.com/documentation/webhelp/english/ALL/components/DOCU/12.2/AWA%20Guides/help.htm#AWA/Objects/obj_job_Attributes_Windows.htm%3FTocPath%3DUsing%2520AWA%7CDesigning%7CObject-Specific%2520Properties%7CJobs%2520(JOBS)%7CJob%2520Object%2520Attributes%7C_____14

    SCRIPTED_REPORT

    ​Hi.

    I don't know either, but did you see the small remark on that page:

    https://docs.automic.com/documentation/webhelp/english/ALL/components/DOCU/12.2/AWA%20Guides/help.htm#AWA/Reports/Reports_Jobs.htm

    It says:

    "Scripted Report Select this option to write an own job report instead of the default one."

    Apparently this is some way to write a report by oneself. How, I don't know. It also appears as if this feature was added very recently, because in the foreign versions of AWI, the label is English also.

    @Elina McCafferty might be interrested in that one since there appears to be a lack of documentation on a new feature ...

    Br,

    Hi Carsten,
    Thank you for pinging me. I've looked into this a bit now, and we will add some more detail in a later release of the doc.
