Report variables are needed for Catalogue fields that are transferred to *G.DBF for presentation in connection lists and others.
The following types of reports may be created with this feature:
•Wire, cable or cable core lists, that is reports based on any of the TARGET database files *A.DBF or *I.DBF.
•Terminal lists, that is reports based on any of the TARGET database files *B.DBF or *X.DBF.
To cover all needs mentioned above, up to five report variables may need to be defined for each Catalogue field that has been transferred to *G.DBF. It concerns the following five cases:
1.The terminals that are the base of terminal lists (PAR1, position 2 = ” ”).
2.Devices connected on the “from side” in wire lists, cable or cable core lists, and devices connected on the internal side in terminal lists (PAR1, position 2 = ”V”).
3.Devices connected on the “to side” in wire lists, cable lists or cable core lists, and devices connected on the external side in terminal lists (PAR1, position 2 = ”N”).
4.Cable symbols for cable cores in cable core lists, and cable symbols for cable cores on the internal side in terminal lists (PAR1, position 2 = ”1”).
5.Cable symbols for cable cores on the external side in terminal lists (PAR1, position 2 = ”2”)
In the example below, all variants have been defined for two standard Catalogue fields, namely TYPE (type number), and BESTELL_NR (ordering number).

A complete list of all standard fields in *KT.DBF is found using the sub-topic named Available standard Catalogue fields. All of them can be used in the way described above.
Defining and using user defined report variables is described in the Edit report variable declarations topic.
