About this task

Arrange display order of reports

Organizing the id values in the array for a data model to customize the order the IBM Enterprise Records software shows the available reports in the Reports tab.

Procedure

To arrange the order in which IBM Enterprise Records software shows reports:

  1. Use an XML editor to open ReportDefinitions.xml.
  2. Locate the array for the data model you use in your file plan object store.
  3. Arrange the id values in the order that you want IBM Enterprise Records to show the reports. For example:
    <array key="dodClassifiedReports">   
    		<value>21<value>
      	<value>3<value>    
    		<value>2<value>
       	<value>1<value>  
    </array>

    IBM Enterprise Records shows report id 21, followed by 3, 2, and 1.

  4. Save ReportDefinitions.xml.
  5. Restart the web application server where IBM Enterprise Records runs for the changes to take effect.
