8.2.11 Related Items Tab
The Related Items tab displays New Report, Related Report, and Show-in Related
Items Report as a link or icon upon selection of a System Browser object.
New Report
This report is always available for quick access to a new Report Definition (as a link
or icon) in the Related Items tab upon selection of a System Browser object.
When clicking the New Report link/icon, a new Report Definition opens in the
Secondary pane (if the Primary pane is unlocked – pushpin horizontal). This Report
Definition, by default, contains the Objects table with the Name filter set to the
selected object in System Browser.
NOTE 1:
If you select a Trend View Definition/Graphic Definition in System Browser and
click the New Report link/icon, then the Report Definition contains a trend
plot/graphics plot with the Name filter set to the selected Trend View
Definition/Graphic Definition.
NOTE 2:
If multiple objects are selected in System Browser, such as Graphics Definitions,
Trend Definitions or BACnet devices/points and you click the New Report link/icon
in the Related Items tab, all the selected objects are set as Name filters for the
Objects table (no graphics plot, trends plot).
You can then configure and run this report as usual.
Related Report
If the selected System Browser object is defined as a Name filter in a report, then
this report becomes a related report for that object and displays as a link/icon in the
Related Items tab.
When clicking this link/icon, the related report runs. During the related report
execution, the data is retrieved according to the Name filter set for the report
element in the Report Definition. The Name filter set in the report element is not
replaced by the selected System Browser object.
For example, if an Event Details report is present in the Related Items tab, it can
be run for the selected event in the Event List.
