Execute and export reports in batch mode or non-interactive mode.
You can create a standardized report from a pre-defined report template in batch
mode. Batch mode processing executes a series of jobs on a computer without manual
intervention. In Report, the result processing jobs are set up in a way that they
can run to completion without manual intervention. All input data are pre-selected
through scripts, command-line parameters, or job control language.
To run a batch mode process for the Report, provide the commands in the Command
Prompt dialog on Windows or Terminal on Linux. The
Report batch mode program takes a set of data files as input, processes them, and
produces a set of output data files. This operating environment is defined as batch
processing because the input data is collected into batches of files and are
processed in batches by the program. Figure 1.
Important: The paths used in the command line when running Report
in batch mode must be full paths only. Using relative paths may cause the batch
mode to not run properly.
Enter the HyperWorks executable along with its full
path.
Enter the full path of the input report template report.
<Input Report Template File Path>
Enter the full path of the output Word/PPT report. All other outputs generated
by the solution are saved in the same directory where the final output report is
generated.
<Output Word/PPT Report Path>
Note: Master file (5) and Working Directory (6) arguments are optional.
Enter the file path for the Master file document.
<Word or PPT Master File Path>
Enter the working directory folder path. All outputs created during the report
execution are stored here.
<Working Directory Folder Path>
Enter the parameters of the report template in the same sequence.
<Arguments Full File Path>
To find the parameters of the report template file, open the report template
using HW File > Open > Report Template.
