Customise delivered filename for report subscription

  • I have also been searching for a solution regarding this issue. I cant believe that MS SQL overlooked the fact that they needed to make it easier to insert values like @ItemDate, @Department etc into the file name of a Report File Subscription.

    Epic FAIL for MS SQL! :w00t:

    I have read somewhere that a custom delivery extension needs to be created to enable you to have a custom filename but have no idea how to do this

    SSRS allows you to have a dynamic file name when you select the windows file share option for a data driven subscription but you can't set it for the email option.

    It is a bit annoying that such a basic feature has not been included.
