In Management you can update text elements (database texts) in the database. These texts may be repeatedly used in all templates. The text elements can also be changed in Management if the user has the necessary rights.

Figure 9.2. Managing texts

Managing texts

Enter the texts using the Text Editor as for the text element (see section --> Text element). Here again you can use placeholders for the page number, date, user, etc.

Other operations, like changing the properties, removal, renaming and copying, are also possible.

If a database text in the text element in a template is changed, that text is transformed to the fixed text in the template and does not act on the original text in the database.

9.2.1. Creating a new database text

Click "Add" to start the Text Editor. After text is entered it is permanently saved in the database.

9.2.2. Editing a database text

Database texts are listed in the Text Management. Double-clicking a row with the left mouse button starts the Text Editor with the content of this text element. The text and the placeholders can now be adapted. As of this point in time the changed text applies in all subsequently generated reports.

9.2.3. Database text properties

In the Properties dialog box for the database text you can change or supplement the description, the group assignment and the rights. The changes are applied immediately after saving.
