Integrate report tables into design template

This guide describes how to integrate and align report tables in a design template by creating new chapters and using design elements for positioning.

To integrate and align the report tables in the design template, the following procedure is recommended:
1. Create a new chapter in the report template and assign it to the design template
To do this, go to: Navigation Bar → *Settings → Report Table Editor → Create Chapter *.

Select the PDF template and assign a heading that you can also display in the test report if required. You can also predefine page breaks.

2. Integrate report table into chapter and design template
Edit an existing report table or create a new one and select the Chapter and PDF Template in which this table should appear. When selecting the chapter, make sure that the chapter is on your PDF template.

By clicking Save, this report table will now appear in the selected chapter on the PDF template.

For aligning the table, you have several options again, should the table not yet appear at the desired location.
1. Use the last design element on the 1st page for alignment
Check the 'Increment Y' option for the last design element in the design template (See instructions Design elements Setting options).

Alternatively, create an empty element with Increment Y

2. Use the report table header design element for alignment
Add a header design element to the report table.

In this, you can vary the row height by entering a higher value for 'Row Height'. It is important that this design element is placed relative to the previous one, regardless of whether there is another design element, another report table, or a page break before it. Increment Y should also be activated so that the table following this design element is raised accordingly in its position.
