I'm trying to schedule a report in Enterprise to be sent as a PDF to a SharePoint site using \\server\site\folder, but I'm receiving the following error:

Error Message: source file error. [CrystalEnterprise.DiskUnmanaged]: [Invalid argument]

I've verified that I can schedule and successfully run the same report to a shared network folder on the same server. The user has access to the network folder and the SharePoint site.

Any ideas?


Thanks!!

How To Schedule WebI Reports and Store them in SharePoint
First, you need to define an Incoming Email on your SharePoint site. Following are
the steps for defining Incoming Emails
Go to you SharePoint site and select Library
Then select Library Setting from the Ribbon like below
Once you select the Library Setting then you will see below screen and you need to
select on Incoming e-mails Settings link.
The Incoming E-Mail does not need to exist in Outlook, so call it anything you want.
This will be a SharePoint email account for your SharePoint site only.
Once you click on above link, it will open below page and you can create a new
email account and specify parameters.
Incoming E-mail => need to set it ‘Yes’ and then can create own email account by
just typing the name.
E-mail Attachments => This gives you flexibility to save only attachments can
group the attachments and overwrite the attachments.
E-Mail Message => if you want to store massage also along with attachment then
set it yes, otherwise no. So if no is selected then it will save only attachment but
not the message.
E-Mail Security => This is important, this gives you facility to accept emails only
from users you has access to SharePoint site. (Important: If you select security
then when you send email using Business Object Scheduler then in from box, Type
the email id which has write access to SharePoint site.)

Details options as per your requirements.

send your report instance for email recipients as per your requirements and Click
on the Schedule button to schedule your business objects reports.

going to SharePoint site or not then follow below steps
