Introduction

This tutorial guides you through the custom attributes process from adding elements to your template down to the final step of publishing the output. The first lesson helps you to create a template that includes a table as a structure for your data. The remaining lessons help you to populate the table with dynamic data from a query and custom queries that are specified when you are publishing the output.
Included in this tutorial are downloadable Generic XML data source schema and data files for you to complete the lessons with:

The schema and the data comes from IBM® Rational® RequisitePro®, but you do not have to have Rational RequisitePro installed to complete the tutorial. Since the data source schema and data are provided for you, you can focus on understanding the general process of creating using custom attributes.

In the data file, there are attributes entered as if they had been entered into Rational RequisitePro. These attributes include:
Table 1. Data file attributes
Attribute name Attribute values
Planned for Milestone 1, Milestone 2, Milestone 3
