File Output 

The Schedule tab allows you to define how a scheduled report will be saved.  

Reports can be saved in any available location on your Pearl Echo server or 

network share.  Pearl Echo reports can be saved in a variety of file standards 

including Adobe Acrobat, Crystal Reports, HTML, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft 

Word, Rich Text Format and Plain Text formats.  Reports saved in Crystal 

Reports format will provide a dynamic report experience for users licensed to 

use Crystal Reports.  Your Pearl Echo license provides you with Crystal 

Reports functionality within the Pearl Echo Report manager. 

By saving scheduled reports to a shared location, users can conveniently 

access Pearl Echo reports on the network.  If reports are saved in HTML 

format, reports can be automatically integrated into your organization's 

intranet. 

When a report is saved to a location that you specify, the report can be saved 

with a unique name or can be set to overwrite the same report previously 

run. 

E mail Output 

The Schedule tab allows you to specify if a report is distributed via Pearl 

Echo's SMTP e mail feature.  Reports are e mailed as attachments in a variety 

of file standards including Adobe Acrobat, Crystal Reports, Microsoft Excel, 

Microsoft Word, Rich Text Format and Plain Text formats.   

You can specify multiple email recipients in the  To  box on the Schedule tab 

by separating e mail addresses with a comma.
