FPCReportJob Object
The FPCReportJob object represents a single report job. Report jobs specify the items to include in the reports and when to generate the reports.
Report jobs can be recurring, meaning that they generate reports at a regular frequency such as monthly or weekly, or run once, meaning that they generate a single report.
When you set up a report job, in addition to configuring how frequently a report will be generated, you configure the period of time that the report will cover.
The FPCReportJob object is an element of an FPCReportJobs collection, and a new report job can be created by calling the Add method of this collection.

Generates the report defined in the report job. |
|
Removes all Report Definition Language (RDL) report categories from the report job. |
|
Removes all instances of Report Definition Language (RDL) report parameters from the report job. |
|
Runs the report job if it is a recurring report job. |
|
Sets the report job to run every day starting from a specified date. |
|
Sets the report job to run on specific days of the week starting from a specified date. |
|
Sets the report job to run once a month, on a specified day of the month, starting from a specified date. |
|
Sets the report job to run only once over a specified period of time of a specified type. |
|
Sets the report job to run only once over a specified period. |
|
