I'm wondering if someone could help me to understand how bursting works when applied to a historical instance of a report. I have a crystal report that is bursted based a field in the report (user ID) so they can view their page only. The bursting works fine when you select "view the latest instance", however, once a historical instance is created from the scheduler, it prompts for a user ID and password. If you enter the UID and password at the prompt, it opens the report, but managers aren't going to be asked to enter those credentials.
I have saved the user ID and password at the data source selection, when published and selected "use the user ID and password entered above" but it still asks for the info before it displays the report.
Does a historical instance require different settings for bursting security? As far as i can tell, I've configured everything correctly and selected burst in the schedule manager and in the bursting set up.

What type of file are you talking about when you say historical instance? A rpt file, pdf, xls?
pdf's seem to have the bursting and security built into them as they are produced.

I am running 9.0.4.2 and bursting does not work for me when scheduling the report (although I don't recall how the problem manifested itself). I am creating historical reports in pdf. If I manually create the historical report the bursting works fine. At the time I logged an incident with Infor support and they tested 10.0 and it didn't burst at all. I decided I would wait to upgrade. My workaround has been to use me as the scheduler.

I thought that we had run into similar issues with bursting and 9.0.4.2 as well. The current version of LBI 10 seems to work much better.
