Creating a Report from a Template or an Empty Report

You can create a model report directly from one of the standard report templates without making any object or format selections. Whether you choose a template or create an empty report, you can modify it in the Report Editor.

  1. Select Report > Reports to open the List of Reports, and click the New Report tool.
  2. Enter a Report name, and select a Language for the report's titles and other framing text.
  3. [optional] Select a report template from the list to prepopulate the report. The following standard templates are available:
    • Full– provides lists of all the types of objects in the model, together with detailed information on each main and sub-object.
    • List – provides lists of all the types of objects in the model.
    • Standard – provides lists of all the types of objects in the model, together with detailed information on each main object.
    • <None> – creates an empty report.
    Note: For more information about report templates, including how to create your own, see Report Templates.
  4. [optional] To use the new report format and editor (see The Report Editor), deselect Use legacy Report Editor.
  5. Click OK to create the report and open it in the Report Editor (see The Report Editor).
  6. [optional] Generate or print the report by clicking the appropriate toolbar tool.
    Note: Report templates can also be applied at generation time (see Generating a Model Report).
