Custom SSRS Event Wizard

I've just published another project onto the K2 BlackMarket site (just in time for Christmas ;), entitled 'A Reporting Services Event Wizard'.

The goal of the project was to provide a codeless and reusable way of enabling a workflow to render an SSRS report as a PDF document, which could then be used by another Event to complete a given use case.

Perhaps the most obvious use case would be a report notification whereby the report document is emailed to an external client or some other recipient who has no direct access to the system. In this scenario the SSRS Event would be partnered with the Mail Event. Another example would be to partner the SSRS Event with the SharePoint Document Event to add a rendered report to a document library, for governance purposes.

Enjoy!
