An Execution Id is a valid user ID that is used to connect to the Reporting Server, FTP server or web server to run a schedule task. When an Execution Id is created, changed, or deleted on a server, it must also be created, changed, or deleted in the Repository table that stores Execution Id credentials. Similarly, when the password for an Execution Id is changed on the server, the password for that Execution Id must also be changed in the Repository table. Exceptions are when Execution credentials are Trusted.
Note: Changing the password of an FTP user applies to all schedules that use that user ID for that FTP server and schedule owner.
To view a list of Execution Ids in the ReportCaster Development interface, click the Execution Ids tab. The following image displays the list of Execution Ids.
From this tab, you can:
Note: When you create, change, or delete an Execution Id, the Repository tables are updated so that they are synchronized with the specified server. However, the credentials of the user ID on the server itself remain unchanged.
To create a new Execution Id:
The Execution Id Editor opens. The following image shows the Execution Id Editor opened when the Execution Id folder in the tree has been selected.
Note: This option is disabled and displays the owner when a user folder was selected prior to selecting New.
Note: The Reporting Servers are defined in the ReportCaster configuration.
To change an Execution Id password:
The Execution Id Editor opens, as shown in the following image.
Changing the password using ReportCaster does not change the password on the specified server.
To delete an Execution Id:
After the Execution Id is deleted, a scheduled job that requires this Execution Id on the specified server will not run unless the schedule is modified to use a valid Execution Id. If you modify the Execution credentials for a single schedule that specifies the deleted Execution Id, ReportCaster makes this modification for all schedules that specify the deleted Execution Id.
