v13 scheduled reports change file name

Post by tm67 »

Hi
We use a lot of reports with a schedule to save a pdf to a local folder.
After upgrade to version 13, we noticed that the file names changed. In v12, we had "Reportname_currentDate.pdf". Now in v13, we have "currentDate_Reportname.pdf".
I did not see any option to change the names of the pdf. When adding a schedule, we can only select the path but not the filename itself.
If I send the report to an email, I can work with variables in the subject (Supported variables: %DashboardName%, %Date%). It would be nice to see this option also for the filename when saving PDFs to a disk.
Would that be possible to add as a feature request? Or am I missing an already existing option?
Timo

Hello Timo,
We selected this format for v13 to quickly order it by name and have new reports on top. But I agree that giving you the option could be better in any case.

We will consider this FR for the future, as we are giving more customization on scheduling for v13.1

I think in any case if this is truly disrupting your day to day, please open a support case as we can perhaps give you a hotfix so all exports follow the old approach.

Thank you
