ARIS 10: Run reports on multiple models at once

Pedro Guerrero on January 24, 2018

Hello everyone

I would like to know if reports can be run together at once. For example, using the United Motor Group data base, I want to get all the graphics for all the models under the Organizational Chart folder.

At this moment, I'm able to get the reports one by one, for example this is the first model available after clicking the Organizational Chart folder

However, we expect to pick one model and get the report from that model and its subsequent models.

We have been looking the ARIS Connect Administration Manual and the chapter 4.1.2.8.3 Generate Report does not mention anything related to, for example, generating a report with multiple models in it so I decided addressing the issue to the community and ask this question which is still unanswered.

Thank you very much for your attention.

Regards

Pedro.

Hola Pedro, buen día.

Lo que comentas tiene que ver con el Contexto del Report(Informe).

Para ello, debes:

1. Abrir la pestaña Administración,

2. En el árbol de navegación expandir la opción Evaluaciones.

3. Expandir la carpeta Informes, dentro de ella encontraras una serie de carpetas que contienen los Informes clasificados.

4. Buscar el Informe que estás ejecutando y revisar su Contexto (para saber desde dónde puede ser ejecutado, ya que hay Infomes que únicamente puedes ejecutarlos desde Objetos, Modelos, Grupos o Base de datos):

Obviamente este Contexto puede ser modificado en las Propiedades del Informe, pero... habría que modificar el código para generar la salida deseada:

Saludos y espero te sea de utilidad.

Muchísimas gracias por tu respuesta, Jorge.

Estuve revisando y el informe más cercano a lo solicitado por el cliente es "Exportar Gráfico como PDF". Yo estoy a cargo de la administración así que le solicité ayuda a un colega para que revise el código para ver si es factible obtener los reportes de una misma carpeta y los de las subcarpetas en su interior.

Nuevamente agradecido de la ayuda

Saludos

Hola Pedro, buenas noches.

Por tu respuesta, creo entender que, lo que necesitas es generar los gráficos de los Modelos localizados dentro de la Carpeta (Grupo en ARIS): Organización y sus Subcarpetas (Subgrupos) con alguno de los Informes (Reports) estándar de ARIS con formato de salida PDF.

Para ello, puedes:

1. Ejecutar el Informe: 'Output models and objects of the groups'

2. Seleccionar en la lista de 'Guardar resultados como' la opción: Archivos PDF en Adobe (*.PDF)

3. En las Opciones de salida, seleccionar las opciones: 'Con gráfico de modelo' y 'Considerar subgrupos':

Sólo en caso de que el requerimiento del cliente sea muy específico, requerirías crear un Informe personalizado.

Saludos.

Tja, man könnte ja versuchen zu helfen, wenn man Englisch schreiben würde...

I always thought this was an english forum...

Es tut mir leid, Robert. Wir haben in Spanisch sprechen gestartet aber kann wir auf englisch dieser unterhaltung zu folgen.

We're moving back to english from now on. I'm running the report the way Jorge told me, I will keep everyone posted about it.

Regards

EDIT: just tried it and it worked. I got a 2000 pages PDF report. Next Wednesday I will try this same solution at customer's ARIS Architect

Thank you very much, again.

Hi,

ok :-) And I would do it in the report itself. Just open an ARIS output object once per model and save it once per model. Then you will get e.g. 30 documents for the 30 models you have selected... You could also start the report on a group and have it get all models of the group and its sub groups.

But for both cases you must change the script code in JS...

Hola Pedro,

for the simple approach to report all models of a group: this is possible for Connect clients as well.

But as you wrote: "we expect to pick one model and get the report from that model and its subsequent models." I assume you want to evaluate the relationship from your top level model to the assigned, detailed models. There are default reports for e.g. Value Chain diagrams which have EPC models assigned to the function objects in order to output the process hierarchy.

Depending on your modeling conventions and model architecture you might need to write a custom report.

Saludos, Martin
