RE: [sqr-users] Multiple reports (use-report) and Maximo 4.1.1

["Michael Moulton" <Michael.Moulton@lce.com>]

The problem with this is that the reports use the same data source and one 
report changes the source.

What we have is Report 1 printing out what it needs.  As it steps through the 
parts it is printing, it goes to Report 2, prints a summary line ("Part xyz 
from PO xyz"), then goes on.  When it's finished, it checks a user input (y/n) 
and if yes, it goes back and resets a flag in each part.  If there's an error 
updating the flag, it prints another line to Report 2 saying "Flag could not be 
updated for Part xyz on PO xyz"

If you create the reports separately you have two advantages.

First, it is easier to maintain separate reports (i.e troubleshoot or modify
each report)

Second, you can call one report from the other using something like this...

let $call = '\\maximo\sqr6\sqrwt.exe ''''\\maximo\sqr6\reports\woprint.sqt
maximo/maximo@mxmo @C:\spl\prm ''''-ziv'
call system using $call #status wait

If your concerned about exposing the uid/pswd then create a reports only uid
with very limited access rights, and keep your source code (.sqr) secure.
