If you have reporting needs that are not met by the standard reports forms included in the Custom Reports window in MPC, you can create your own custom report templates. They will be shown in the list of available report forms in the Custom Reports window and can be included in your generated reports. The available reports are specific to each analysis type.
To open the Reports Template window, click the Add button or the Edit button on the Report Templates tab of the MPC Templates Manager.
The Fields tab allows you to choose and configure the fields to be shown in the body of the report.
The Column Header Customization tab allows you to configure the column headers shown in the report.
The Preview tab displays an approximate preview of the template incorporating the settings you have specified on the other two tabs.
On the Fields tab of the Report Template window, the Available Fields area displays all of the properties available to use that are not yet selected.
The Selected Fields area displays the properties that have been selected for inclusion in the template, in the order in which they will appear. You can drag and drop the selected properties into the desired position or use the Up/Down icons.
You can double-click a property or use the Include/Exclude icons to move the property between the areas.
Each field that you have selected for inclusion in the report template on the Fields tab will appear in the table on the Column Header Customization tab.
There are four options for column width:
Fit Header will size to fit the text in the column header (i.e., the column name).
Fit Data will size to fit the widest data text in the column (i.e., all of the rows below the column name).
Fit Header/Data will size to fit the widest text in the column, regardless of whether it is the column name or the data.
User Defined allows you to specify the exact column width (number of characters).
By default, the column headings will use the names shown in the Property Name column. You can overwrite that by entering text in the Overwrite Default Header Text column.
Once you have configured all options to suit your needs, you can go to the Preview tab to see what the report template looks like. You can also click OK to save the report template.
