That is, a report instance is created when a report object is scheduled and run by the Job Server. Essentially, a report instance is a report object that contains report data that is retrieved from one or more databases. Each instance contains data that is current at the time the report is processed. Similarly, SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise creates a program instance each time that a program object is scheduled and run by the Job Server. Unlike report instances, which can be viewed in their completed format, program instances exist as records in the object history. SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise stores the program's standard output and standard error in a text output file. You can view and manage instances by doing either of the following: · Opening the "History" dialog box for an object. 99 2010-11-16 Scheduling Objects · Going to the "Instance Manager".
