Definition:
The Push Reporting system is designed to give users the ability to easily create report templates, based on pre-defined SQL query statements, and to schedule to have reports dynamically generated and emailed to them on a regular basis. The email output can be in the form of plain text, HTML, or file attachments (such as PDF and Excel).
The user is able to view his report templates (and those of other users, provided the user has the appropriate access rights), as well as view, edit, and delete them. Furthermore, at any time the user can choose to generate a report for immediate emailing.
