SCT Summary Definition Attribute Details

Column Definition defines the columns displayed in the Tailored Summary Viewer in the SCT. You can define up to seven columns (list of structures). Each structure contains the following information:
  • Column Heading - Defines the name of the column header.
  • Child Item - Indicates item for which the column data is retrieved based on its name attribute, which must match a user-specified pattern (such as ZN-* or ZN-T, or Zone-T). To display an attribute of the row item, leave this field blank. Otherwise, specify the name of the child item to display.
  • Attribute - Defines the attribute information for the column. The attributes are grouped into categories for easy selection. Select a category in the Attribute Filter section of the Select Column Attribute dialog, and then select the desired attribute from the list.
