New bie question on Report Schedule

Hi , i'm using DSS to get relevant financial details . I have explored the GUI & REST calls.

In the schedule i find that the schedule 'xyx schedule' with recurrence 'Once' must have extraction date today or in the future."Is it not possible to have a report that extract previous dates details.

What are the reports that allow previous dates details ?

Thanks a Lot

@kthulsidoss,

Let me clarify:

  • Extraction date: when the data extraction will occur. Can only be in the future.
  • Date(s) for the data to retrieve: defined by the nature of the extraction, or its parameters. Can only be in the past.

The user guide chapter 5 gives details on schedules, as seen in the GUI. Chapter 4 gives details on templates, with on page 80 an example of a date range setting.

For a programmatic example: see REST tutorial 10. It defines an immediate schedule (which will be submitted to queue just after it was created, so the extraction will run soon after, i.e. in the close future), to retrieve previous day (i.e. data from the past) end of day data (this is defined by the use of the EoD template).
