The following table describes the properties that can be added to the Report Parameters table.

Table A- 1 Additional properties that can be added to the Report Parameters table

ColumnDescription
FSRA_ID

Specifies the property identifier.

Set a unique and consecutive number, starting from 100000 (enables you to easily distinguish between the new properties you added and the existing pre-defined properties).

FSRA_NAMESpecifies a unique property name.
FSRA_IS_DISPLAYABLE

Specifies whether or not to display the property through the Properties dialog box. Valid values are:

  • T - True
  • F - False

Set this value to 'T.'

FSRA_IS_CONVERTIBLE

Specifies whether or not to convert the % (wildcard sign) to * in the Properties dialog box. The valid values include:

  • T - True
  • F - False

If the property value contains wildcards, set this value to 'T.'

FSRA_DEFAULT_VALUE

Specifies the default value of the property.

Set this value to NULL, since you will later define the default value when you associate the new property to the customized report.

FSRA_PROMPT_TEXTSpecifies the text that is displayed with the property box in the Properties dialog box. Enter a description.
FSRA_TAB_ID

Specifies the tab ID - of the report Properties dialog box - in which this property is displayed. Set to one of the following valid values according to your property:

  • G - General
  • F - Filters
  • T - Time Frame
FSRA_INDEXSpecifies the property index in the tab, indicating its order.

If you use a database tool such as Microsoft SQL Server Enterprise Manager, you can use the following INSERT statement as an example, to add a new parameter to the PS_FSRA_REPORT_PARAMETERS table.
INSERT INTO PS_FSRA_REPORT_PARAMETERS
(FSRA_ID, FSRA_NAME, FSRA_IS_DISPLAYABLE,
FSRA_IS_CONVERTABLE, FSRA_DEFAULT_VALUE,
FSRA_PROMPT_TEXT, FSRA_TAB_ID, FSRA_INDEX)
VALUES (100000, 'ProgramFilter', 'T', 'T', NULL, '
Analyze only the following programs:', 'F', 10)

...

The following table describes the parameters values which can be customized.

Table A- 2 Parameter Values

ColumnDescription
FSPV_FSRA_ID

Specifies the property identifier.

Set the number as you specified in the FSRA_ID column of the Report Parameters Table.

See About adding a new property to the Report Parameters table

on page 55

.

FSPV_FSPG_ID

Specifies the group identifier.

FSPV_FSRP_ID

Specifies the report identifier.

Set the number that you found in the Reports Table. See About locating the report identifier

on page 56

.

FSPV_CTX_ID

Specifies the context identifier.

To find the context identifier of the new property, run the following query:

SELECT FSPV_CTX_ID
FROM PS_FSPV_PARAMETER_VALUES
WHERE (FSPV_FSRP_ID = report_id) AND
(FSPV_FSRA_ID = parameter_id)

Where report_id is the report identifier that you found in the Reports Table and parameter_id is the report parameter that you added in the Report Parameters Table. See About adding a new property to the Report Parameters table

on page 55

.

The query result includes the required value for FSPV_CTX_ID. Set the resulted value accordingly.

FSPV_VALUESpecifies the default value of the new property.
FSPV_PROMPT_TEXT

Specifies the text that is displayed with the property box in the Properties dialog box.

You can set to NULL to apply the text that you already set in the FSRA_PROMPT_TEXT column of the Report Parameters Table, or you enter a new text to override it. See About adding a new property to the Report Parameters table

on page 55

.

When you create a Customized report, Report Manager creates two files: a Microsoft Excel file that contains the report details, and a .xml file that contains the report definition. This procedure provides step-by-step instructions for updating the definitions of the query tag in the .xml file. See About creating a customized report on page 57 and About adding a new property to the Report Parameters table on page 55.

The following example shows the query tag before modification:

After completing report settings, execute the customized report and then save it. Report Manager creates two files, the report's Microsoft Excel file and .xml file. See Creating customized reports on page 23.
