HTML Report header

[LabviewLad]

Hi all,

I have a test stand 2017 sequence (sequential model) which calls several subsequences (from another seq file) with a single pass entry point. Each of the subsequences creates its own HTML report. I would like to be able to make the header in each of the subsequence reports the same as the header in the master report (which is generated by the top level sequence). I've used the PreUUT callback in the master sequence to put some additional information in the master report header. How do I go about copying the header from the master report into the other reports? Do I need to use the same PreUUT code thats in the top level sequqnce?

Please go easy as I'm not a Teststand expert... not yet! 😉

Hey LabviewLad, 

The easiest way to modify your report header is to override the ModifyReportHeader model callback in the client sequence file. If you plan to use a modified header in all client sequences associated with your model, consider modifying the ModifyReportHeader callback directly rather than overriding it. 

The attached ReportHeader.seq file demonstrates a simple modification to the report header. To make these changes permanent for all of the sequences executed in your station, you can modify the process model sequence file to include the changes in the ModifyReportHeader sequence.

This forum uses the same callback: Problems using ModifyReportHeader to add additional header fields

Rebecca,

Excellent, thank you!

I've added the ModifyReportHeader call back to my sequences and updated the Parameters.ReportHeader value with data gathered by another sequence (the data is stored in the StationGlobals so it is available to all the other sequences). I tried to use the PreUUT callback to gather the data (which comes from external devices) but I think the PreUUT callback is executed after the ModifyReportHeader, as the data wasn't present during the initial ModifyReportHeader call.

Its all working anyway, so thank you again!
