Setup procedure for Reporting Framework Templates and Reports for QAD 2010SE.
1. Below is the setup procedure for Reporting Framework Templates and Reports for QAD 2010SE.
2. For any earlier QAD versions requires a QAD Services engagement.
Note: This will apparently be necessary after each database conversion.
Note : You do NOT have to rerun the UI build to make the reports and templates available for use and
running samples, etc.
• Importing Standard Report Templates and
Sample Reports
o The database setup does not populate the database with either the standard
report templates or the standard reports. The templates are required for any
of the report design functions (such as the “Report Wizard” which will
hang without them) to work properly.
o To import the templates:
Copy the contents of
/<qadinstall>/<qaduiconfig>/com/qad/db/reports/sys_templates/
e.g.
/opt/qad/2010se/mfgsvr/ui291omg3/com/qad/db/reports/sys_templates/
to a windows machine (e.g. to a folder of their own like c:sys_templates)
on which you are running QAD .NET UI.
• We used ASCII mode when FTP’ing these files
Now, run the “Template Designer” (36.4.21.31) (must be under
.NET UI).
• Near the upper right, click on the “Import” button (see
screenshot below):
3. • This brings up the following popup screen (see
screenshot below):
4. • Using the Browse facility, (box with … in it above the
grayed out “Import” button), browse to the folder where you
put the template XML files.
• Click the “Update” checkbox.
• Click the “Refresh” button.
• This will bring up the list of templates you can import as
in the following screenshot below:
5. • Click on the “Import” button to import all of the
standard templates.

e.g.
/opt/qad/2010se/mfgsvr/ui291omg3/com/qad/db/reports/sys_reports/
to a windows machine (e.g. to a folder of their own like c:sys_reports) on
which you are running QAD .NET UI.
