Creating custom headers and footers

Reports that are created from lists can have custom headers and footers. You can use the Configuration Console to specify which information to include in the header or footer.

  1. Select Configuration Console > Reports.
  2. Edit the list for which you are creating a header or footer.
  3. Add one or both of the following lines to the list definition: 
    page header is form name
    page footer is form name

    You can add these lines at any point in the list that is indented one level from the first line that defines the list name. form name can be any form in the business class, either delivered or created by a customer. The form can contain any field from the business class.

    The first value for the field on a page becomes the header, and the last value on a page becomes the footer.

  4. Click Submit.
  5. After generating a PDF of the list, verify that the value of the field in form name is in the header and/or footer.
