Reports

You can create pre-defined reports that provide detailed information about specific types of artifacts.
Rational® Requirements Composer currently includes the following pre-defined reports:

These reports are generated using a run time version of IBM® Rational Publishing Engine (RPE) that is also included with Rational Requirements Composer. The reports provide more detailed information than you can generate by exporting artifacts.

Note that if have a licensed version of RPE, you can create your own customized report templates by selecting other report options in the Create a Report wizard.

Additional Information about Report Formats

Microsoft Word

If you generate a report in Microsoft Word Doc format and you see the message Error! No Table of Contents Entries Found, you can right-click on the message and select Update Field from the popup menu. This will eliminate the message and cause the table of contents to display properly.

HTML

When you generate a report in HTML format, multiple files are created to capture the report content, style, and embedded images. These files are compressed into a single ZIP file. Note that some ZIP programs might not enable you to see the embedded report images if you open the contents of the report ZIP file directly from the eclipse client . To work around this, you can download the report archive file, unzip it on your local machine, and view the HTML content using your browser.

FO

FO designates XSL Formatting Objects, which is a standard, unified presentation language for documents. You can use this format with post-processors to generate printable or renderable output. You can also use it with scripts to post-process your results. For more information about this format, see XSL Formatting Objects
