Creating a Report Shortcut in Intelligence Reporting

Creating a Report Shortcut in Intelligence Reporting

An LNK file allows a report to be run from a shortcut without needing to use the Report Manager Interface. LNK files need to be created using the Report Manager Interface and then associated with the Alchemex.exe program under the windows operating system.



Resolution
1. To create a LNK file right click on the report and select Create Report Shortcut. You will be prompted to select a location and name for the file.
