Solid and Time-tested Reporting Tools for WPF
The C1ReportsScheduler is a scheduling application that is included with Reports for WPF. It is designed to generate and export ComponentOne Reports in the background on set schedules. Use the application yourself or distribute it to end users.
The C1ReportsScheduler application consists of two interacting parts: a front-end and a Windows service. The Windows service runs in the background, executing specified tasks according to their schedules. The front-end can be used to view or edit the task list, start or stop schedules, and control the service. While the front-end is used to install and setup the service, it is not needed for the service to run.

Export Formats
ComponentOne Reports can be exported to many formats including: PDF, Rich Text, Open XML Word, Excel, HTML, Metafile, images and more.
The C1ReportsScheduler Windows service is provided so reports can be generated at any scheduled time because the front-end application will not always be running. The service can be easily installed and uninstalled on your machine through the front-end application. When the C1ReportsScheduler is run for the first time, a dialog pops up asking whether you would like to install the service. The service does not need to be installed if the front-end application is to remain running.
