Generating a Traceability Report
Next Design allows you to generate a traceability report that summarizes the contents of the Trace View in Excel format.
To generate a traceability report from the Trace View, follow these steps:

- From the ribbon, click [Traceability] > [Export] > [Traceability Report].
- In the [Generate Traceability Report] dialog box, specify the file name to generate and click the [Save] button.
- The file will be generated and opened.
Sample


- The traceability report is generated with trace configuration information and product application status reflected.
- If an error occurs during report generation, the process will not be interrupted, and error information will be output to the output pane.
-
When generating a traceability report for a model with a model name of 32 characters or more, the model name set in the Excel file's sheet name will be limited to the first 31 characters.
-
If sheet names are duplicated, a warning will be output to the output pane.
-
If the cell value exceeds the maximum number of characters (32,767 characters), the following action will occur:
-
A warning will be output to the output pane.
-
A warning will be set for the affected model and can be viewed in the Model Navigator.
-
A message indicating that the value exceeds the maximum number of characters will be displayed in the affected cell in the Excel file.
