Web Component Tutorial
Where did the table’s title go?
If you followed exactly the procedures given previously, you may have noticed that
even though you set the table’s title to Utilization Report - Hosts, it didn’t appear when
you generated the PDF. The situation is quite similar to the point raised in Additional
Activities in Tutorial 2. Causing a title to appear is a two-step process, and defining the
title’s content is only the first step. You also have to configure the parent component to
show the title.
To cause the table’s title to appear:
1
Return to editing Hosts Summary Report T5 and choose the Views tab.
2
Select Load Summary Table T5 by clicking anywhere on its row.
3
Click the Properties button on the menu bar.
The Properties dialog appears.
4
Check Show Title and then click Save.
5
Click Save on Load Summary Table T5’s menu bar.
6
Regenerate the report. The title should be present.
View the Report in a Dashboard
Edit the Report component by checking its Pagelet check box and then add it to row 0
and column 0 of a Grid component purposed as a Dashboard.
As you are adding the Report, make sure that Show Page is enabled. View the report
and note that the title you set in the Report’s Additional Context is displayed.
Schedule a Report in vFoglight
When the construction of the report is finished and it is giving you the result you want,
you can schedule a report run whenever you want. Creating a report schedule is a two-
step process.
First, create a schedule for performing an action that as yet has not been specified.
To create a schedule:
1
Switch to Administration > Schedules > Create Schedule and fill in the required
data. See the Administration Guide if you need further information.
Note You can choose New Schedule in the Report Manager as an alternate way of
creating a schedule for your reports.
2
Choose Reports > Report Manager under Dashboards.
