Both EQuIS Professional and Enterprise provide the option to group reports.
Note: Whether the groups are created in Professional or Enterprise, the groups will be available in both places. |
Reports may also be grouped in Enterprise via the Explorer Widget.
Complete the following steps to group reports in Professional:
1.Open the RT_GROUP and RT_GROUP_MEMBER tables.
2.In RT_GROUP, create a new record. The three major fields to fill in are: GROUP_CODE, GROUP_TYPE, and GROUP_DESC.
a.GROUP_CODE: A short, unique name for the group.
b.GROUP_TYPE: "report_id"
c.GROUP_DESC: The Folder name that will appear.
d.FACILITY_ID: Assign to create a facility-specific group. Clear this field to allow all facilities to access the group.
3.In RT_GROUP_MEMBER, create a new record.

b.MEMBER_CODE: The REPORT_ID of the report (from the ST_REPORT table) to include in the group.
c.MEMBER_TYPE: "report_id"
d.STATUS_FLAG: "A"
