Add NEW Project Reports to P3D

Anonymous — Fri, 27 Aug 2021 09:00:29 GMT

Hi,

Is it possible to add reports to the DM Project Report tab? I've a bunch of Reports set up that I would like users to be able to extract ad-hoc, I want to keep general users away from the Report Creator as inevitably someone will edit the template.

Or is there another way users can run/extract custom reports without ability to modify the template setup?

Thanks

Mike

Yes just make new report and place the file in the same directory as the current reports

Thanks, I've tried that, but it doesn't seem to work unless I am missing a trick?

The default reports are *.xml format yet the ones I create from Report Creator are as *.rcf - I'm assuming that may be the issue but can't be sure how to save template as xml and trial that way

Your confusing 2 different kind of reports.
Teh ones created in report creator needs to stay in report creator. They can not be used inside P3D.

The *.xml reports can only be used in P3D and needs to be xml.

A small note about the project reports in Plant 3D.
The project reports in the data manager can ONLY be used in Plant 3D P&ID.
In Plant 3D 3D models there are NO project reports in the data manager.
