Deferred Reporting configuration settings determine how deferred reports are processed. The configuration settings enable you to specify whether to:
The Deferred Reporting configuration settings are automatically available from the Administration Console upon a full or update installation of WebFOCUS. For details on how to install and configure WebFOCUS, see the WebFOCUS Installation and Configuration manual for your platform.
The following configuration setting enables you to configure whether users will be prompted to type customized Deferred Report descriptions, which will uniquely identify reports that are submitted to run deferred multiple times (that is, more than once).
Prompt for Custom Deferred Report Description. When this check box is selected, the default setting, users are prompted to optionally customize the description for the Deferred Report, which defaults to the title of the report being run deferred. This occurs whenever the description has not been submitted with the run Deferred Report request. When this check box is clear, the title of the report being submitted to run deferred is assigned to the Deferred Report description automatically, and no prompt appears.
Additionally, these next configuration settings allow you to specify whether to display the Deferred Report submitted notification and the delete report confirmation. The default is to display these notifications. You should fully evaluate how these configuration settings apply to your application workflow and usability prior to clearing the check boxes, in which case the notifications will not display.
Display Deferred Request Submitted Notification. When this check box is selected, the default setting, the Deferred Report Submit Notification displays when the report has been successfully submitted to run deferred. If the report is not successfully submitted to run deferred, a message displays with information as to why it was not successfully submitted. You can click the Deferred Report Status link to open the report directly from this notification. When this check box is clear, the Deferred Report Submit Notification dialog box does not open.
Display Deferred Ticket Delete Confirmation. When this check box is selected, the default setting, a message prompts the user to confirm the deletion of a Deferred Report. When this check box is clear, the user is not prompted to confirm the deletion. Making a large number of deletions is faster when suppressing the confirmation message.
