Adding current date into attachment filename in reporting service

Hi there,

I have been using reporting service to generate my report and sending email with attachment report via subscription everyday. It is work well and no error.

My attachment file name is as same as reportname project. But customers asked me to add current date into an attachment filename which will help them to identify the report. I try to check in rsreportserver.config to change it but have no idea.

My reportname project is daily_file.rdl and my attachment filename in email is daily_file.csv. I'd like to change my attachment filename as day_month_year_file.csv.

Is there anyone know how to change an attachment filename to be not the same as reportname in reporting service 2005

Regards,

Hello...

I have the same question. My subscription generates a file that gets stored on our Network file server. A new file is created every day and the users want the generate date included in the name of the file that is created and saved. I see that this can be done in the e-mail subject line if your subscriptions email the users. How do you do it in the file name?

Thanks.

You can't do change the name on an export, but you can take a look at a couple posts on here about using a data-driven subscription to handle this.
