Multiple scheduled reports preventing update?

Hello everyone,

I have severak reports I have built for our operations users, which all seem to be working wonderfully.
I have noticed recently however, that sometimes the report is sent to a user via e-mail, but it has not actually updated the data in the report itself.

Looking at the log for the task yields nothing useful, as there are no errors and as far as jet is concerned, the task completed successfully.
The only thing I can think that might be causing this, would be that I am running three reports that interrogate the same DB and same tables all at the same time.
Is it possible that running multiple reports at once causes problems updating?

I am going to spread the three reports out across half an hour, and see if that makes any difference, but it doesn't happen all the time, so might be difficult to see any differences.

Cheers,
Eds

Hello Eds,

i have had the same problem, when scheduling a few reports for the same time.
After spreading the scheduled starttimes the problem was gone.

Thanks Jetsetter,

I'll give until the middle of next week with spread start times, to see if the problems occurs again, and report back if it was successful or not.
