Enquiries can be defined as a report and printed on-line or during the end of day. When defining the ENQUIRY(report) the PAGE.SIZE iENQUIRYshould be set to the size of the report page.

Tip:

There is no restriction on width or depth of report. All other aspects of the definition are the same.

Example Report Enquiry St ructure

To run the report a record must be entered in the application ENQUIRY.REPORT. This will define any selection criteria, thREPORT.CONTROLid for printer routing, the default header definitions etc. See ENQUIRY.REPORT for more details. To run the report duringthe end of day the id of the ENQUIRY.REPORT record should be entered in the DATA field of the BATCH record for the jobEB.PRIN preceded b

ENQ.

Step 1

Step 2

Create two files in the account .run directory.

First XML.LOCAL (you can name the file anything you like)

And in that file create another file T RANSLATE.xls you can name the file anything you like but it should be an .xls t ype file)

These files will be used to store an error messages that occur in any XML reporting.

Step 3

Create a record in the REPORT.TRANSFORM application, here we have called ours XML.TRANSFORM, this will later be added REPORT.CONTROLrecord.

Note that the fields Trans.Path, Transname.1, Report.Dest.1, Error.Dest.1 require the files created in

XML.TRANSFORM record.

Step 4.

TheREPORT.CONTROL record indicates whichDE.FORM.TYPEto use (See FORM.NAME field in step 5 screen shot.

The correspondingDE.FORM.TYPE record must have the PRINTER.ID field set to HOLD or else if it is left blank the PRINTER.ID attached tothe USERwill be used (and if that is set up incorrectly Browser will produce a Unable to write banner FATAL.ERROR)

The form.Depth field must be set high to avoid hidden characters in the XML report (or page breaks shown as hidden characters are automaticallyinserted according to the form depth set here).

The OPTIONS field inDE.FORM.TYPEmust also be set to NHEAD for XML reports, this will suppress the header in the XML record.

DE.FORM.TYPE reco rd.

step 5.

For this example we create a new record in theREPORT.CONTROLapplication calledACCOUNT-LIST.

Here theDE.FORM.TYPErecord XML is used in the field Form. Name

TheREPORT.TRANSFORMrecord XML.TRANSFORM is used in the field Report.Transform

Step 6.

A new record inENQUIRY.REPORT application calledACCOUNT-LIST is created detailing the Enquiry record to access, what Reporting rules argoing to be applied to it and its Output format.

Once this record is completed and authorised, an XML report can be produced form this record by using the Verify function.

Multi-values are supported in the generated XML (but not sub-values) and are indicated in the field definitions, as in the above example, by threpeatable label being set to TRUE. The actual fields will then be repeated in the data.

Important Note:

In order to use the new functionality the application the Application the Enquiry Report is based on has to have their STANDARD.SELECTIONrecord rebuilt.

To rebuild a STANDARD.SELECTION record open the relevant record and populate the Rebuild.Sys.Flds field with Y then authorise the record.

Marling the standard selection to allow a rebuild.

Viewing XML generated ENQUIRY.REPORTS in Browser

It is possible to view XML generated reports in Browser, a style sheet will have to be created for the ENQUIRY.REPORT in question and placeon to the Web Server, in this case we have placed the XML style sheet in to the directory:

C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\webapps\BrowserWeb\transforms\custom

TheENQUIRY.REPORT for the related record will need the following set up:

The field Additional.Data will require the path location of the style sheet note that the BrowserWeb is considered to be the top-level directorthus the shorter entry.

The field Output.Format will need to be XML

ENQUIRY.REPORT f or XML reporting.

In order to view the XML report simply verify the record in Browser, an XML record will be created in the &HOLD& file automatically and thstyle sheet will be populated and launched.
