Configuring Sun Master Indexes

Configuring the MIDM Reports Page

Configuring the Reports page consists of configuring the page itself and configuring the individual reports. Production reports are each configured in the same way in their own sub-screen definition element. Activity reports are configured together in one sub-screen definition. The sub-screen definitions means there are a series of tabbed pages within the Reports page for each different type of report.

Perform any of the following tasks to configure the reports:

Configuring the Reports Page Definition

For the Reports page, you can configure the name of the tabbed heading for the page and the order in which the tab appears on the MIDM. The report configuration section defines the appearance of the Reports page, and is located within a set of reports tags near the end of the file. Following is a sample of the Reports page configuration elements.


<reports>
   <root-object>Person</root-object>
   <tab-name>Reports</tab-name>
   <screen-id>6</screen-id>
   <display-order>5</display-order>
   <search-pages/>
   <search-result-pages/>

ProcedureTo Configure the Reports Page Definition

  1. In the Projects window, expand the Configuration node in the project you want to modify, and then double-click midm.xml.

    The file opens in the NetBeans XML editor.

  2. Scroll to the reports element (located in the gui-definition element).

  3. To specify a different name for the Reports tab, modify the value of the tab-name element.

  4. To change the order in which the Reports tab appears on the MIDM, change the value of the display-order element.

    Note –

    You might need to renumber the remaining tabs to keep the numbering sequential.

Configuring Production Reports

A sub-screen on the Reports page is defined for each of the production reports. Use these sections to configure each production report to display information as you want to view it. You can also specify which reports can be run from the MIDM. Following is an example of a report configuration stanza.


<subscreen>
   <enable>true</enable>
   <root-object>Person</root-object>
   <tab-name>Potential Duplicate Report</tab-name>

      <search-result-list-page>
         <search-result-id>0</search-result-id>
         <item-per-page>10</item-per-page>
         <max-result-size>2000</max-result-size>
