Generating Reports
Harness assemblies can be documented in reports. These reports are dependent on specified
properties and can be configured to meet your needs.
In this chapter, you learn about the Report Generator user interface, and how to format and
generate reports.
About Generating Reports
Several standard report types, such as wire run lists, bills of material, and
connector tables, can be run for a harness assembly. The information that is
processed is based on the property set for each harness component.
When a report is generated, the output file is saved to a specified location, and
one or more reports are displayed in the Report Generator document window
for viewing. Report output files can be imported into an Excel
®
spreadsheet or
similar application. Reports can also be added as table annotations in a nailboard
drawing.
A set of sample configuration files is installed with the application. You can
rename and customize the sample configuration files to produce reports that
meet your needs. You can also create your own configuration file from a blank
file.
NOTE The Report Generator can only view report configuration and .csv files that
are created in the Report Generator.
Workflow for Harness Reports
The following are the basic steps to create and generate a harness report.
