A pre-processing of the *2.DBF TARGET database is made in the report generation process in order to include spare terminals.

 

An executable file (FIXSPARETERMINALS.EXE) is called to pre-process the TARGET database.

 

A report definition must therefore include a call of that file to support spare terminals. The picture below shows how that call is defined. The section in question is found in the Settings 2 tab of the report definition.

 

 

•FIXSPARETERMINALS.EXE must be entered in the upper Batch file: field.

•Run preprocessing of TARGET databases must be checked.
