Default Values and Subscriptions

I have a report that I run where the selected MONTH and YEAR defaults to the prior month and year. When I run the report it shows the parameter values show as June 2007. Which is correct since this is July.

If I schedule the report to run on the 1st of every month will it default to the prior month/year automatically (I have the "use default" box checked).

Hello,

As long as your default value is setup correctly and will work for any month (and January of the new year), yes, your subscription will use the default value when it runs.

Default rendering in a subscription

Hi all,
I have uswers who are setting up their own subscriptions and I have been
asked if we can change the default rendering option. It is currently set to
web archive and we almost always use PDF. I haven't been able to find a
setting that will change this. Any ideas?
ThanksHi clang,
Thank you for your post!
When you create a subscription in the report manager, you could configure
the render format.
There is an option named Render Format and you could set the format there.
The PDF file is in the list.
Here is an article for your reference:

How to Specify a Format
If you are specifying the delivery through Report Manager, you can choose
the format from a drop-down list. If you are specifying a delivery
programmatically or through a query (as supported by data-driven
subscriptions), use the text strings as defined in the
rsreportserver.config file. The rendering extension names in the
configuration file vary slightly from the rendering formats displayed in
Report Manager. For example, TIFF in Report Manager is equivalent to IMAGE
in the configuration file.
Hope this will be helpful!
Sincerely,
Wei Lu
