Adding batch serial number to report file name in sequential model

[Tomahawk1277]

Hi,

I'm using a Sequential model in TS 4.0 and have learned how to add the UUT serial number to the report file name. But I would like to add the batch serial number instead. Is this possible? Any modifications to the ReportOptions callback seem to only modify the temp report name.

Thanks!

Chris

I just discovered this myself in considering your question...  If you change your station process model to be the Batch process model you get a different report options dialog to configure.  Check out a screen shot...

I finally took the time to read some of the other threads and found that your question (posted here) is a bit more than I first thought.  The request for a batch serial number was a bit misleading for me...  I think Dennis has the correct answer here for editing the file name.

Hi Chris,

While Paul's suggestion may be useful in this case, if you would like the flexibility of customizing your Report File Pathnames further, you may want to consider upgrading to TestStand 4.2.

In TestStand 4.2 we introduced predefined macros and the ability to use custom expressions to specify the Report File Pathname. For example, the <Batch> macro will add the Batch Serial Number to the Report File Pathname as you specify it.

Please see the Using Expressions to Customize Report File Paths section of the TestStand 4.2 Reference Manual for more information on these new reporting features and how one might use them. For a specific explanation of the different macros and what they might be used for, please see the Specifying Report File Paths by Expression section of the TestStand Help.
