I have a report which is sectioned by 'department'. And the output will be a pdf. So within the PDF Finance dept has 3 pages, Law has 2 pages and etc. So what I need is I need to split the report and send it to the user's email. <br />
<br />
Splitting the report refers that the Finance part of the pdf should have 'Finance.pdf' created and &nbsp;emailed to Finance dept users and similarly Law should get 'Law.pdf' emailed to Law dept users.<br />
<br />
Is there any way to achieve this? Do we have to use macros and SDK stuff to do this?<br />
I know of a few tools like APOS which does this. But those are expensive &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;.

Split the Report Output

A database report is the formatted result of database queries and contains useful data for decision-making and analysis. Most good business applications contain a built-in reporting tool; this is simply a front-end interface that calls or runs back-end database queries that are formatted for easy application usage.

DB Reporting Tools

Crystal Reports is a business intelligence application from SAP SE. It is used to graphically design data connections and report layouts from a wide range of data sources including Excel spreadsheets, Oracle, SQL Server databases and Access databases, BusinessObjects Enterprise business views, and local file-system information. Report designers can place fields from these sources on the report design surface, and can also deploy them in custom formulas (using either BASIC or Crystal's own syntax), which are then placed on the design surface. Crystal Reports also supports subreports, graphing, and a limited amount of GIS functionality.
