How to Set Up Reports in the Page Layout

How the Areas of a Page Layout Are Divided Up
Page layouts are divided up geometrically into a number of different areas. The page range
corresponds to the total area of the layout. The print margins can be specified for this area. It
makes sense to begin by configuring the margins of the printable area for the header, footer
or a company logo and only then to configure the rest of the printable area for the output of
report data. The printable area inside the margins is referred to as the "body of the page".

The report and log layout contain a static layer and a dynamic layer. The static layer contains
the header and footer of a layout for outputting the company name, company logo, project
name, layout name, page number, time, etc. The dynamic layer contains the dynamic objects
for outputting the configuration and Runtime data.
In the static layer, only static and system objects can be inserted. In the dynamic layer, static
and dynamic objects can be inserted.
Objects that are inserted in the dynamic part of a page layout are extended dynamically, if
required. If an object of the type dynamic table is supplied with data, for example, this table is
extended to allow all data in the table to be output. If there are other objects in the dynamic
part of the layout, these are moved accordingly. Objects that are to have a fixed position must
therefore be inserted in the static part of the layout.

Pages in the Page Layout

Each page layout consists of three pages:

Cover sheet
Report contents
Final page

How to Set Up Reports in the Page Layout

Cover sheet

The cover sheet is a fixed component of a page layout. It is therefore possible to design
a separate cover sheet for each report.

Report
contents

The structure and contents of the report for output are defined in this part of the page
layout. system objects available for defining the report contents.
The report contents have a static and a dynamic component (configuration layer).
If necessary, the dynamic part of the contents of the report is spread across the various
subsequent pages at output, since it is not known until the time of output how much data
there is.

Final page

The final page is a fixed part of a page layout. It is therefore possible to design a separate
final page for each report.

The creation and output of the cover sheet and final page are optional. By default, a cover sheet
is output, but a final page is not output. You edit a page layout in the page layout editor.
The cover sheet and final page also have a static and a dynamic component (configuration
layer).
Important:
If you use dynamic objects on the cover sheet or final page, only some of this data may be
included at output. This happens when the data of dynamic objects do not fit on a single page.
The cover sheet and final page only ever consist of a single page and never contain a page
break.
