Chapter 4 Managing a Report
Book items provide information about objects in the model. These items have a restricted set of dependent items called object-dependent items.
You can delete and change the order of object-dependent items in the Report Items pane. You cannot insert object-dependent items into object books of a different type.
For example, in the following report structure, the book item Class precedes its object dependent items:
The report generator prints object-dependent items once for each book item. If an item does not have information for a particular object, it does not appear in the resulting report.
For example if a domain does not have any associated rules or check parameters, the domain description prints directly after the domain card.
All book items have the following object-dependent items:
| Dependent item | Print format | Content |
|---|---|---|
| Card | List of properties | Properties of an object |
| Description | Text paragraph | Description of an object |
| Annotation | Text paragraph | Annotation of an object |
In addition to the items mentioned above, each book item has dependent items related to the object type. For example, a business rule book item has a dependent item for server expression.
