Crystal Reports Distributor is an application for Windows that saves time and money by making it easy to define single or packages of Crytal reports, schedule and run them automatically, and send the reports to print, fax, disk, or email in a number of standard formats. Simply set up a schedule stating how often you would like each report to run, whether you'd like the output in Word, Excel, HTML, RTF, Acrobat, RPT, text format, and more and who it should be sent to.It's easy to schedule reports to run at a specific date and time, or to run them hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly. The same report can be scheduled to be run multiple times with different parameters, formats, frequencies, and destinations. By automating repetitive reporting tasks, Crystal Reports Distributor ensures that reports are created and distributed when needed, without error, and without costly support time.Crystal Reports Distributor's familiar Explorer-like interface makes it easy to define and schedule report packages.
