Explain the Difference Between Bursting and Scheduling?



Explain the Difference Between Bursting and Scheduling? ..

Answer / arijit mondal

Main usefulness of Bursting >> Run the Report once and
distribute the resultset in various parts to various
recipients at once, sending only the relevant sub-section of
the resultset to the designated user. So if its a Store
level Transaction Report, and You wish to send it
individually for 100 stores to the relevant store Manager, U
set up bursting, and run this report once for All
Stores..that will, if setup correctly, generate 100 outputs,
one for each store, and would send that to 100 recipients,
recipient for Store A receiving Store A's data only, and so on.

If You wish to do the same thing without Bursting, U would
have to set up 100 different Jobs with different parameters
to send out to each store manager.
