Print Output Options XML - to the Bus and Tasks API

  

DEVELOPER

Click on the Function Definition Properties icon and click on the Spooler tab and select Output Type XML - to the Bus & Tasks API.

This sends the report output through the PROIV bus to a 3rd party application. This is only applicable if the report is being called by a Task. The formatting of the output, as defined in the report function, is ignored.

The Fields in this Window:

Alternate Tag Names - If no XML tag names are specified in the report definition, the PROIV will generate generic tag names. Checking this box tells PROIV to use a different standard for the generic tag names. See the PROIV manual for details of this.

Explicit Tag Names Only - Check to limit the XML output to those data elements that have explicitly defined XML tag names. This enables an existing PROIV report to be easily made to run in both XML mode and normal mode, with only the required elements output as XML.

Output Source Attribute - Checking this will output the source of the element as an attribute in the XML tag.  

Don’t Indent Output - Normally, the XML output will be indented, to show nesting. Checking this turns the indenting off.
