About

PBRS (Power BI Report Scheduler) by ChristianSteven Software automates report scheduling, export, personalization and delivery across Power BI Service, Power BI Report Server, Power BI Paginated Reports and Microsoft SSRS. Designed for BI teams, IT departments and organizations with recurring reporting obligations, PBRS replaces repetitive exports and separately maintained delivery workflows with a centrally managed Windows application. Schedule reports hourly, daily, weekly or monthly, use custom business calendars, or trigger workflows from supported database, file, email and system events. Refresh Power BI datasets and wait for completion before generating and distributing reports. Use data-driven (Dynamic) scheduling and report bursting to produce different outputs for each customer, department, location or recipient. Database or JSON data can determine reports, filters, parameters, recipients, formats, filenames and delivery messages. Export reports and visual data to supported formats, including PDF, Excel and CSV. Create formatted or template-based Excel outputs, combine applicable outputs into multi-tab workbooks, and assemble multiple reports into one email, ZIP file or bookmarked PDF. Protect PDF outputs with passwords and encryption. Deliver reports to internal and external recipients through email, Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, FTP, SFTP, network folders, Slack and printers. Recipients can receive exported files without needing Power BI access. Manage reporting operations with execution history, notifications, configured retries and blank-report handling. PBRS brings report generation, packaging and distribution into one workflow for organizations whose needs extend beyond straightforward subscriptions or individual Power Automate flows. Developers can use the PBRS REST API to manage supported schedules, trigger workflows and monitor execution, integrating report automation into business applications and customer portals. PBRS is installed in your Windows environment. It is suited to businesses that need controlled, repeatable report delivery across multiple recipients, formats and destinations.

About

vFound Parcels is browser-based mailroom software for apartment buildings, university mailrooms, offices, coworking spaces, hotels and multi-tenant properties. Staff scan barcodes or photograph delivery labels, review suggested recipient and tracking details, assign shelf locations and notify recipients by email. Each recipient can open a private pickup page to view waiting parcels, use a collection code, snooze reminders, set a hold date or authorize another collector. Staff manage a live pickup queue, record signatures and optional pickup photos, print parcel and shelf labels, track shelf occupancy, log outgoing courier handoffs and run signed delivery rounds. Reporting and CSV exports help teams review parcel volumes and collections. The software runs in a browser and shares a people list and workspace with other vFound products; it supports parcel intake and handoffs rather than courier booking or postage purchasing.

PBRS extends business intelligence workflows by automating how Power BI reports reach the people who need them. BI teams can distribute recipient-specific information to customers, departments and locations without repeatedly exporting files or maintaining separate delivery schedules. Use SQL or JSON data to determine each recipient’s reports, filters, parameters, formats and destinations. Coordinate dataset refresh with report generation, then deliver PDF documents, Excel workbooks, CSV files or assembled report packages. PBRS supports Power BI Service, Power BI Report Server, Power BI Paginated Reports and Microsoft SSRS. It runs in your Windows environment and delivers outputs through email, Teams, SharePoint, cloud storage and other supported channels. External recipients can receive exported files without Power BI access.
