Scheduled Starter Hut reports via email

You can schedule two reports from Starter Hut just as you would schedule running reports from the Reports module in the 3.98 release. If you run the No Show Detail and the Player Count reports for Starter Hut as your end-of-day tasks, you can have these reports run automatically and then emailed. This will avoid manually printing and emailing the reports every day, which can be time-consuming.
