Run Script Window (FILE / RUN SCRIPT)

Identifies the script output directory
This directory holds the JPGs and generated
HTML object. This field should not need to
be in most cases. That is, if the default environment
is used, the output directory is the inside
the Performance Navigator 99 folder where 99 is
the current release installed. However
NOTE: For monthly scripts, the start date must be the 1st of the month.
Failing to do so, creates an environment where “historical” data will not be found
in the report tables.
