You can set a chron job, e.g. a url that will generate the daily report. The chron job is set at the web server, and you can set the timespan (every hour, every day, etc) to call the url.

Alternatively, you could set a trigger in the Global.asax file (e.g. the Application_BeginRequest event) where it will check if the report of the day is created or not. If not, you could call the function that creates the report.
