1-How can I save the SORT, USER POST, and SQUEEZE setting when creating my Report Format File Setup?
2-The UPDATE EXISTING in the Table Generation Setup is always grayed out meanwhile there is a table in the project. What seem to be the issue? I don't want to do it all over again.
3-I want the internal jumper to show in the jumper chart but for some reason it is not.I created a jumper layer and also
use the Add/Edit Internal Jumper but it is still not showing.
I will appreciate any help. Thanks for all the guidance.
Justin
Justin, the update being greyed out can indicate that the existing table is in a different format than the new report. Be sure you run the new report using the same report format file that was used to create the existing report. Once you configure a report the way you want (sort, fields to report, justification, etc.) save it as a report format for re-use. Report formats save with a .set extension to your User folder by default. Click the Format button to load a report format that has been previously saved. If you are going to insert a new style of report, delete the existing report since there will be no update option.

I have my report generator looking the way I want it - where or how do I go from here to save it for re-use? I will also like to create a set file for this.
At the lower left of the change report format dialog is the button to save as a report format.

Thats what I did but the internal jumper is not showing. Please refer to the attachment.
Thanks.
Justin
I don't know your workflow so it's hard to say why internal jumpers aren't displaying. I just verified that it works. See attached.
You must assign internal jumpers via block properties. It is not the same as using the Edit jumper command. That jumpers terminal to terminal. You can do both of course. You can have internal jumpers from level to level and jumpers from terminal to terminal.

I am not talking about terminal strip terminals but internal jumpers in a Parametric PLC. Lets say you jumped IN 0 and COM; what will you do to show this jumpers in the jumper chart?
Thanks again
Justin
The jumper chart displays jumpers between terminal blocks or the various levels of multilevel terminal blocks. It is not intended to display jumpers between the wire connections of a PLC or other devices.

Ok, is there another way to show this internal jumpers?
Also, I have my automatic report set up BUT for some reason the BOM is coming out differently( not picking the Suppress Item Column Repeats). Please refer to the picture and advise what I am doing wrong.
Thanks you.
Justin
Has anyone find the solution on how to get an automate list of all the internally jumped wires - that is wires jumped from IN1 to IN2 (not terminals)?
How can I set up my "Report Format File Setup to exclude the PUT ON DRAWING. I want all the other options but no put on drawing.
Please assist. Thanks for any help.
