The Report Customization/Settings window allows you to establish your preferences for configurable reporting options, such as the logo to be displayed in report documents, the font style and size, etc.
To open the utility, click Manage > Settings in the Reports window.
Report Font, Header Font and Footer Font set the font and size for the text in the body, header and footer of the reports that you generate from your computer. Please note that there are specific limitations for some fonts and sizes, as discussed in Font Size and Style Considerations below.
Logo for Printed Reports will display in the document header, if specified.
Select Logo allows you to import a *.png, *.bmp, *dib, *.gif, *.jpg, *.wmf, *.emf, *.ico or *.cur graphic.
No Report Logo displays no logo on the printed report.
Default Logo displays the default software graphic that was shipped with the application.
Paper Size for Reports specifies whether the Word and Excel documents will be configured for U.S. Letter or A4-sized paper.
Action Details Report Options
Set orientation to portrait. Select the check box to print the report in portrait orientation (top edge along the short side of the page). If not selected, the report will be printed in landscape orientation (top edge along the long side of the page).
Include full FMEA record properties. Clear the check box to include only the description for Function, Failure, Effect and Cause records in the report. Select the check box to include all other enabled properties for the associated Function, Failure, Effect and Cause records in the report. For example, if the analysis uses three levels of effects (according to the interface style), then all three fields will be included in the report.
Other
Display FMEA spreadsheet column headers on every page for Excel reports repeats the rows up to and including the column headers on every page of FMEA spreadsheet reports generated in Excel.
Repeat data in spreadsheet reports ensures that each row in the FMEA Spreadsheet report will contain all FMEA information related to that row, even if some of the information is repeated from the row above and would otherwise have been "merged" within the table. For example, if there are two causes for the same failure, then the report will display the same function, failure and effect data in both rows. This option is useful if, for instance, you need to be able to sort the rows in the generated report or if you need to copy a single line of the report for external use.
Merge cells in spreadsheet reports merges the blank cells below a record in a column with that cell.
Set generated report files as read-only sets the generated Word and Excel documents to "Read-only" on the General page of the document Properties window.
Show Priority Colors highlights the FMEA records based on the priority categories specified in the interface style defined for the project.
Use name (not abbreviation) for time units specifies how the units will be displayed in the report (e.g., 12650 Hour or 12650 Hr).
Use letters to identify failures and causes in RCM reports: In RCM++ or RBI, RCM reports will use letters to identify failures and causes for the first 26 failures or causes, and then revert to numbers.
Footer for Printed Reports sets the text displayed in the footer of all reports.
Please note that the software allows you to select a font size as small as 6 pt even though Excel may be unable to properly render certain fonts at sizes that small. This limitation tends to apply to more ornate fonts (e.g., Lucida Calligraphy). If you encounter a situation where the report generated by the software does not display in the font that you have selected, it is recommended to increase the font size to 8 pt or higher and generate the report again.
