BIRT example two: the IXIASOFT CCMS data set definition
In this example we'll use the Authored Stamp two different ways in successive columns.
When you are defining a stamp-based column, you are offered a choice of filters that let you extract subsets of the information it returns. In the example below, you can see that in each data column we’ll be extracting a different portion of the Authored Stamp.
The Authored Stamp returns all the dates when a document was promoted into the review cycle, and the name of the user (or users) that performed the promotion.
- The first column of our data set definition extracts the year-month portion of the date.
- The second column extracts the user name.
You can also see the TEXTML query that the data set definition is based on. It’s simply a query for all topics in the Authoring cycle.
