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.
