    The following tips relate to the C1ReportScheduler application.

    Tip 1: Using C1ReportScheduler in Client mode.

    When scheduling a report in client mode using C1ReportScheduler, you may get an error that the XML is not found. That's because the XMLl file is accessed from the mapped drive. Standalone mode is able to run successfully because in standalone mode the local user account is used by the C1ReportsScheduler service which can easily access the network locations. But when the mode is switched to client mode the network locations are not accessible because the service account used to access the file might not have the right to access the network location.

    In order to remove the problem you'll need to do following:

    1. Open services.msc by typing "services.msc" in run prompt.
    2. Open the C1ReportsScheduler service properties and change its account to either local account or any domain account which has the rights to access the network locations such as the location of mapped drive (N:).
    3. Restart the C1ReportsScheduler service.
    4. Now in the C1ReportsScheduler window change the file path to actual network location instead of map drive path. For example change "N:\SecurityExpirations.xml" to the actual network path, such as "\\srv1\\SecurityExpirations.xml ".

    The error should not occur after this.
