You are the Microsoft Project Server administrator for your organization. The members of the management committee has asked you to create a weekly report about the project’s progress. They do not want to connect to the Report Manager to view the report. What is most expedient method to create management’s report and deliver it to them on a weekly basis?
A.
Create the report yourself through Report Manager, export the report to Excel, and then email the report to management.
B.
Create an email-driven report through SRS and Exchange Server.
C.
Create and schedule on-demand access reports through a Web-browser.
D.
Create a subscription-based report.
Explanation:
Reporting services will allow you to schedule and generate reports that can be delivered via email or to a file share.
Answer option B is incorrect. You do not need Exchange Server to create an emaildriven report. Answer option C is incorrect. An on-demand report would require management to interact with the SRS, rather than have the automated approach they’re after. Answer option A is incorrect. While it is possible to generate the report and export the findings to Excel, this approach would be time consuming and tedious. You should use the automated, subscription-based setting.
