SQL-RD is a scheduler for Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) that helps you to manage multiple SSRS installations in one automation tool. This scheduler helps you to take quick, insightful business decisions at a lower cost of ownership.

All you need to do is set up a schedule for the time, day, month when you want the report to be run and specify the desired format of output. This may be in the form of Word, Excel, HTML, RTF, Acrobat or text format. With a design to support a variety of reporting requirements, SQL-RD provides a strong scheduling platform. With SQL-RD it's simple to manage SSRS at a specific date and time, or to run them on hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly basis. In fact, you may customize the frequency in any way for e g. every other day, first Tuesday of the month, and so on. And the same report may be set to run multiple times with various parameters, formats, frequencies, and destinations.

SQL Server Reporting Services or SSRS can also be regulated through event based packages with the installation of SQL-RD. Here, the reports are produced and released under specific conditions. ...
... This may anything like the modification of a database value, the updation of a file or the receipt of an email from a particular ID or IDs. The dynamic schedules feature of this SSRS tool also allow multiple instances of the same report to be exported. In other words, SQL-RD automatically enters the required parameter values, exports the report and delivers the result to the corresponding email ID, folder, ftp, printer or fax.

The beauty of this SQL Reports Scheduler is its simplicity. The Explorer-like interface of SQL-RD makes it a breeze to define and schedule report packages. The context (right-click) menus and copy-paste support help to create complex distribution schedules.

With one dynamic application, you can easily mitigate labor costs and have a better, more focused control over business.
