Description
Currently only one report format option ("Title | Arrivals") displays in the serial-16 Service. Are there any other report formats -- and, if not, could we add them?
Resolution
In the ./form_eng/number-of-issues.xsl we see this in SECTION-02:
<xsl:with-param name="label" select="'Title'"/>
<xsl:with-param name="value" select="./title"/>
...
...
<xsl:with-param name="label" select="'Arrivals'"/>
<xsl:with-param name="value" select="./arrivals"/>
And the following in the b_serial_16_b program:
MOVE "TITLE" TO BUF-FORM-XML-HEADER.
MOVE REC-IN-TITLE TO BUF-FORM-XML-DATA.
CALL "form_fill_xml_data" USING
...
...
MOVE "ARRIVALS" TO BUF-FORM-XML-HEADER.
MOVE REC-IN-NO-ARIVALS TO BUF-FORM-XML-DATA.
CALL "form_fill_xml_data" USING
Thus, unlike certain other forms where a Znn table is read and where any column from that table can be included on the form and in the report, the number-of-issues form is relying on form_fill_xml_data to supply values, and the inclusion of other columns would require changes to the b_serial_16_b program.
