iReport templates provide the foundation on which IMSMA reports are based. A report template defines:
- the data source (e.g. Land, Activity, Accident)
- the attributes that should be displayed on the report (e.g. Land ID, Land Name and Areasize for a land report)
- the overall appearance of the report (title, formatting, etc.)
A tutorial on using iReport and building templates can be found in Use i-Report.
The IMSMA Report Template Manager
The IMSMA Report Template Manager allows adding, changing and deleting report templates. To access the Report Template Manager, choose Customisation > Report Template Manager.
This opens the Report Template Manager.
