Report Data Population

Overview

v1.11.8 or later

Pages and blog posts will automatically update their data for the different Document Approval reports and macros.

However, sometimes the data won’t be updated if there were some unexpected errors or there was a lack of edit permissions by the user that triggered the update itself.

In those cases the data for the reports can be manually populated by running a space level job using the Report Data Population screen in the space tools Document Approval dashboard.

This option complements the option to run the space level properties through the URL.

When would I want to use this?

The data population option can be used to populate space properties data for the workflow properties for your pages and blog posts in a space if there are unexpected errors in Comala Document Approval reports and report macros.

However, sometimes the data won’t be updated because there were some unexpected errors or if there was a lack of edit permissions by the user that triggered the update itself. In those cases the data for the reports can be manually populated by running a space level job.

Running the space population

In space tools Document Approval dashboard

  • choose Report Data Population option

  • choose Populate button

Before running the space properties population job, all workflows must be enabled or the already existing data of pages and blog posts will be deleted. This data can be repopulated in any moment though, so it won’t be forever lost.
