XML Notation for Substitution Codes in XLSX Report Template
You structure information in an XLSX report template by using XML notation for substitution codes.
You can structure your information in a linear way or in columns of your XLSX file.
In an XSLX file you can structure your data in multiple tabs, you can also add pictures, tables, diagram, headers and footers.
If you use XLSX as report format, the notification text (Notification Object) and the report text (Notification Report Template) is not used.
The Notification Report Template is created in an XLSX file. In order to turn an XLSX file into a Notification Report Template, you can use simple or advanced method of structuring information in the XLSX template. You configure all the content of the Report Template in an XLSX-template, using XML.
You use a start-end tag "<.../>" together with the name of your Report data.
Example: <MyProperties/> or <MySearch/>
You start and end each part of the reported data with a start-end tag.
The XLSX report will be generated using the configuration in the Report Template.
You describe the data in columns of an XLSX template directly in order to easier configure graphs, specify conditional formatting etc.
You use start-end tag "<.../>" together with the name of your Report data and then you type the substitution codes from the Report data in XML-notation. See examples below.
You use the start-end tag only, to delegate the decision which information is displayed to the XLSX Report Template. The use of the start-end tag only enables the XLSX Report Template to display the report text from Notification Report Template.
Example: if you type <MyAlarms/> (the start-end tag), then the report text is displayed in the Report Template. .
|
Alarms |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Timestamp |
Source |
Alarm text |
System alarm id |
Priority |
Triggered timestamp |
|
<MyAlarms/> |
|
|
|
|
|
You use the schema: the start-tag - the substitution codes - the end-tag, to prevent the report text in the Report Template from showing.
Example: if you type <MyAlarms> <Source/><AlarmText/></MyAlarms> (the start-tag - the substitution codes - the end-tag), then the report text is not displayed in the Report Template.
|
Alarms |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Timestamp |
Source |
Alarm text |
System alarm id |
Priority |
Triggered timestamp |
|
<MyAlarms><Timestamp f=%y-%m-%d %H:%M:%D"/> |
<Source/> |
<AlarmText/> |
<SystemAlarmId/> |
<Priority/> |
<TriggeredTimestamp/></MyAlarms> |
You report Alarm data in Alarm columns using substitution codes translated to XML. Example:
|
Timestamp |
Source |
Alarm text |
System alarm id |
Triggered timestamp |
|
<MyAlarms><TimeStamp f="%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"/> |
<Source/> |
<AlarmText/> |
<SystemAlarmId/> |
<TriggeredTimestamp/></MyAlarms> |
You report Event data in Event columns using substitution codes translated to XML. Example:
|
Timestamp |
Source |
User name |
System event id |
Priority |
Triggered timestamp |
|
<MyEvents><TimeStamp f="%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"/> |
<Source/> |
<UserName/> |
<SystemEventId/> |
<Priority/> |
<TriggeredTimestamp/></MyEvents> |
You report User data in User columns using substitution codes translated to XML. Example:
|
<MyUsers> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Path Permissions |
|
Type Permissions |
|
|
User name: |
<UserName/> |
<ActivePathPermissions><PermissionValue/> |
<PermissionFlags/></ActivePathPermissions> |
<ActiveTypePermissions/> |
|
|
Domain name: |
<DomainName/> |
|
|
|
|
|
MemberOf: |
<MemberOf/> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
</MyUsers> |
You use subgroups to classify permissions and avoid conflicts of Users and Groups:
|
Subgroup |
Parent |
|
<PathPermissions/> |
Users |
|
<TypePermissions/> |
Users |
|
<ActivePathPermissions/> |
Users |
|
<ActiveTypePermissions/> |
Users |
|
<ActiveCommandPermissions/> |
Users |
|
<PathPermissions/> |
Groups |
|
<TypePermissions/> |
Groups |
|
<CommandPermissions/> |
Groups |
|
<Permissions/> |
<TypePermissions/>, <ActiveTypePermissions/> |
Styling in merged cells doesn’t work.
The tags <MyProperties> or <MyAlarms> are referring to the report data in the Report Template.
If you use formulas with references, note that inserted data will add rows. Therefore, ensure that your formulas refer to correct cells after data has been inserted.
