Report Preview URL

If you want users to preview report output over the internet, use this field to specify the base URL path to the report output files.

Usually this matches the TaskMan Path, except it is shown in HTTP or HTTPS format. For example, if the TaskMan Path is \\ServerName\applicationname, then the Report URL is http://ServerName/applicationname.

If you have overridden the TaskMan Path by specifying a Report Output Folder for this site in the Sites (or Sites/Entities) form, then specify the URL path to that folder here.

In either case, you must also create an IIS virtual directory that maps to the specified URL.

If the Report Preview URL field is blank, then report files are opened directly using the UNC path specified in either the TaskMan Path field or the Report Output Folder field on the Sites (or Sites/Entities) form.

If you have overridden the output path for certain reports by specifying an Output Directory in the Report Options form, the application cannot determine the proper folder to use for internet display of those reports.
