Maintaining Sun Master Indexes (Repository)

Master Index Report Configuration (Repository)

The reports are configured by XML files. For the command line reports, the configuration files are located in the report home directory in the config subdirectory. The file eView CompanyReport.xml provides an example of how the file might be configured for a company object; the file eIndexPersonReport.xml provides an example of how the file might be configured for a person object. You can use either file for your reports. When you create a new master index application, you can specify the fields that appear on reports.

The configuration files allow you to specify which reports to run, the time period of the transactions to include in each report, and the name and location of the report files. You can also define various report details, such as the name of each report, which fields to include, and the names and sizes of the report columns. Most of these changes should only need to be made one time, before you first run the reports.
