Schedule Objects › Set General Scheduling Options › Select a Destination

Select a Destination

Using BusinessObjects Enterprise, you can configure an object or instance or output to a destination other than the default Output File Repository Server (FRS). When the system runs an object, it always stores the output instance on the Output FRS. Being able to choose an additional destination gives you the flexibility to deliver instances across your enterprise system or to destinations outside your enterprise system.

For example, you can set an object to have its output automatically delivered by email to other users.

Note: You can also configure object instances to be printed after they have been run.

When you specify a destination other than Default, BusinessObjects Enterprise generates a unique name for the output file or files. To generate a file name, you can use a combination of ID, name or title of the object, owner information, or the date and time information. The available destinations are file locations, FTP, email, and BusinessObjects Enterprise inboxes.

The following destinations are available:

• Default destination location
• File Location
• FTP Location
• Email
• Inbox

Note: You can change the destination setting for an object or instance either in the CMC or in InfoView. When you specify the destination settings through the CMC, these settings are also reflected in the default scheduling settings for InfoView.
