You can add a new report template. A template has information that must be created correctly for the report to work.

About this task

To add a report template:

Procedure

  1. Click General > Workspaces.
  2. Click Add Template. The window to add report template is displayed.
  3. Select the Report Target. Select Focal Point to specify the template in XML. Select RPE to upload a RPE template file based on the XSD that is created in IBM Rational Publishing Engine Document Studio. Select TPE for legacy format.
    Note: For reports with target TPE, the generated output from Rational® Focal Point™ is a compressed file containing the template, XML and images, rather than a completed report. RPE Document Studio Launcher must be run to complete the report.
  4. Type a title for the template in the Title field.
  5. Type a description for the template in the Description field.
  6. Specify the contents of the template depending on the report target, either as XML or by uploading an RPE or TPE file.
  7. Click Validate XML for consistency when specifying the template.
  8. Click OK.
