Before you generate IBM® Rational® Publishing Engine reports
in IBM Rational Focal Point™,
you must download the report XSD from Rational Focal Point and
author a report template in Rational Publishing Engine.
Before you begin
Install
Rational Publishing Engine Document
Studio and author a report template. You must have a separate license
for authoring templates in
Rational Publishing Engine.
You can install
Rational Publishing Engine on
the same server as
Rational Focal Point.
Important: When you upload the Rational Publishing Engine template
to Rational Focal Point,
make sure that you use fonts that are in the Rational Focal Point server.
Otherwise, the reports might not be displayed correctly.
Procedure
- Download the Rational Focal Point report
XSD.
- For the generic XML data source, go to http://hostname/ip:port/fp/report/fp-report.xsd.
- For a Rational Focal Point REST
data source, select the URL to the appropriate module. For example: http://hostname/ip:port/fp/resources/workspaces/workspace_id/modules/module_id/elements.xsd.
- In Rational Publishing Engine Document
Studio, create a template file that is based on the Rational Focal Point XSD.
