    Daily tag report every morning without anyone pressing a button

    Every morning one of our operators opens the Tag Report, selects about 20 tags (flows, pressures and tank levels), sets the range to the last 24 hours and exports an XLS file for the plant manager. It takes 10 minutes and is often forgotten on weekends.
    I saw the words "Manually" and "Automatically" in the output options of the report window, but when I select "Automatically" nothing seems to happen. Is it possible to have Omnivex SCADA create this report automatically at a fixed time every day? What are the steps?

    Yes, automatic output is possible, but it only works for saved reports. That is why selecting "Automatically" on an unsaved report has no effect.
    1. Make sure the tags are logged
    Only tags with Log Status = Periodic appear in the Tag Report. Tags set to No Log are not listed. The Log Time of each tag defines how often a value is recorded, so check that it is fine enough for your daily report.
    2. Build the report once
    1. Open Insert > Report Management > Tag Report.
    2. Select your 20 tags and click Start.
    3. In Query Range, use Last with Period and Time to get the last 24 hours. (Interval of time is for fixed start/end dates and is not suitable for a recurring report.)
    4. Choose the view (View Table, View Graphic or View Table/Graphic) and the output format, for example XLS.
    3. Save it
    Click Create Report. The report parameters are stored and appear under Saved Reports.
    4. Switch to automatic
    Open the saved report, select Automatically and set the output times in the Set window, for example 06:30 every day.
    Notes
    - The SCADA server must be running at the scheduled time.
    - The documentation does not describe automatic emailing of the generated file. If the manager needs the file by email, tell us how you would like to receive it and we will check the options for your version.
    - If you want a fixed company layout instead of the standard table, have a look at Template Report as well.
