Integrating custom reports into the global context

Sub plan reports are not automatically integrated into the global context of Infor EPM business applications when the sub plan is added. That is, they do not automatically inherit the selected configuration set, version, and entity.

Use report parameters in Application Studio to pass integrate custom reports into the global context.

In Application Studio, sign in to the custom application.
Create these global variables:
bap_GlobalContextXML

bap_Navigation
In Design mode, in the report catalog, right-click a report to integrate and select Report Parameters.
Add bap_GlobalContextXML and bap_Navigation as report parameters.
Repeat step 4 for each report that requires integration.

Optionally, to test the integration, add these formulas to one of the integrated reports. Then, in Infor EPM business applications, make changes to the global context.

=GETPROPERTY(GlobalVariables.bap_GlobalContextXML.Text,"configuration set_context","Configuration setUN")

=GETPROPERTY(GlobalVariables.bap_GlobalContextXML.Text,"configuration set_context","VersionUN")

=GETPROPERTY(GlobalVariables.bap_GlobalContextXML.Text,"configuration set_context","EntityUN")

The values returned by the formulas change according your selections in the Global Context page.
