Note:

Regular doclet authors can embed the Text and Note boxes using the same process as grids and charts.

To make report content available from a Report in a Reference doclet:

  1. Check out the Reports Reference doclet that was created previously with report content.

    Note:

    See About the Report Designer in Designing with Reports for Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud guide for information on creating reports.
  2. To make the report content available to other doclet authors to embed, select the Reports Reference doclet in the report center, clickdoclet actions arrow, select Act on Content, and then select Inspect Available Content.
  3. From the Available Content dialog, select Add..
  4. Select the available source objects from the report in the Reference doclet to make those objects available for doclet authors to embed in their doclets.
  5. Optional: Change the display name or description. Display Name is required.
  6. Optional:Clear the Automatically Resize Table Contents checkbox if you want to disable it. By default, this option is enabled for the available content.
    This option is applicable to embedded Word tables. When enabled, the embedded Word table resizes the rows and columns which may introduce slight differences from the source table or grid.
  7. Click OK. The available content dialog is displayed.
  8. Click Close.
  9. From Act on Content, select Check In or if changes were made that you would like to discard, select Undo Check Out to cancel any changes you made.

    Note:

    When a Reference doclet is checked in, all doclets that consume the associated embedded content are automatically refreshed. If available content is deleted from the Reference doclet or renamed, it causes broken links in the doclet using that content. See Remapping Available Content within a Reference Doclet or File.
