When Reporting4Act! is run from a scheduled task or another application, it sets an exit code so you can determine the outcome of the report request.

  • For a scheduled report, the Last Run Result column of the Windows Task Scheduler includes the hex value shown in the table below.

  • If you call Reporting4Act! from a batch file, you can check the ERRORLEVEL system variable to determine the exit code.

  • From other applications, use the Windows API GetExitCodeProcess function; search http://msdn.microsoft.com for information on this function.

The following codes are used:
