Section Tags

Section tags are determined by the name that is specified in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Report Design Aid (RDA). The name that you see in the XML output is the same as the name found in the Description field of the Section Properties form.

Because multiple sections in an RDA report template can be named the same, the section tag in the XML output is appended with a section ID. The section ID begins with the letter S to indicate that it is a section from the report. The section ID is assigned by RDA to ensure that each report section is unique. The section ID is retrieved from the report specifications and cannot be modified.

This is an example of the sections that are included in the XML output for a batch version of the Purchase Order Print report:

- <R43500>
   + <Properties>
   + <Purchase_Order_Print_S42_Column_Headings Language="">
   + <PageHeaders>
   + <Purchase_Order_Print_S42_Group>
  </R43500>

The first node of the XML output displays the name of the Purchase Order Print report template, R43500. All other nodes are nested under this report template node:

  • The first node under the report template name is the Properties node.

  • The second node is the Column Headings Language node.

    This node appears only when the batch version includes columnar sections.

  • The third node is the PageHeaders node.

  • The fourth node is a section that groups all associated level break headers and level break footers with the report detail section.
