To insert one or more
stored processes into a report layout, complete these steps:
-
Perform one of these tasks to insert a
stored process object:
-
Drag the stored process tool from
the toolbar into a specific cell.
-
Click
on the horizontal toolbar.
An empty placeholder object for a stored process is placed in the next available cell
in the layout grid.
-
Right-click on the stored process, and then select Edit to open the Insert
a Stored Process dialog box.
-
Select a folder Location and navigate to the stored process that you want to use.
Note: Only stored processes appear
in the Insert a Stored Process dialog box.
No other types of data sources appear.
-
(Optional) To sort the
list of stored processes, click Name, Date,
or Description.
-
Select the stored process that you want to use.
-
Click OK. The name of the stored process appears in the stored process object.
-
(Optional) To insert another stored process, repeat steps 1 through 6.
-
Note: You cannot complete this
step if no stored process has been assigned to the stored process
report object, if no group breaks are defined in the section that
contains the stored process, or if the stored process does not contain
any parameters.
-
Right-click on the stored process, and then select Assign Group Breaks to
open the Assign Group Breaks To Stored Process Prompts dialog
box.
-
Specify the
Group
break levels. Note that a group break value can be passed only to a compatible prompt. For example,
a group break value
on a character item can be passed only to a text prompt. A group break value on a
date
category can be passed only to a date prompt, and so on.
-
-
(Optional) Add other
report elements (for example, images or text) that are independent
of the inserted stored processes.
