Creating a Table Template Using the DS Report Template
  1. From the Smart Template Administration section of the action bar, click Table Template .
  2. In the Table Template Definition panel, select a type from the Report Type list:
    • Native Report: In the Report Name list, select a report name.

      Note: Changing a native report resets all the existing attributes.

    • DS Report Template: Click Object Selection to select an existing report template.

      Note: The DS report templates are stored as .xml files.

    The attributes are represented as regular knowledge parameters and rules using Enterprise Knowledge Language (EKL) actions.

    Most parts of the table template are configured automatically with default values (Report Attributes, NLS Attributes, Report Rules, and Table Layout).
  3. Optional: In the Select view object filter type list, select Box Filter.

    The table contents depend on the primary content filter defined for a view.

  4. Optional: In the tree, double-click the required attributes under the Table Template node to modify the values.
  5. Optional: In the tree, right-click an attribute and select Lock to make the parameter non-editable.

Note: The primary content filtering for report generation works only on occurrences. If the filter box is created on a feature aggregated inside an occurrence containing multiple features, all the features under the occurrence are reported.
