Publishing Readiness Query Attributes
You can use the attributes to describe the Publishing Readiness of an assembly. The attributes are valid for all elements of an assembly, unless otherwise noted.
| Column Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Actual Page Count | The actual number of pages in the element. |
| All Pages Included | Indicates whether all pages in documents are to be published. |
| Application Version | An eCTD attribute. |
| Assembly Level | The relative level in the assembly where the element has been assigned. For example: the assembly root is 0, folders under the root are 1, the first element in folders is 2, and so on. Aligned TOCs and special sheets are assigned numerically, immediately after the element to which they are assigned in the order they appear, from left to right. Volumes are level 1 for a Paper Report Type, and folders are level 1 for an eCTD Report Type. |
| Element Empty | Indicates whether the folder or leaf element contains children. If a leaf or folder is empty, it is a candidate for deletion during Prepare To Publish. Leaf files are considered by the system to be empty when they are “default” type, as opposed to “reference” type. Default leafs are considered by the system to be empty when the leaf contains no child documents.
Valid for Folders and Leafs and Volumes. |
| Element Name | Inherited from the Element Name provided in the element attributes. If there is no “Element Name” the system provides a value of NA. |
| Element Number | Elements may contain an element number in addition to the element name, and sometimes instead of an element name. In these instances, an element number is provided. Element Number is valid for volumes, folders and leaf elements only. For leaf elements, the value should also contain the parent folder number. |
| Element Path | The location of the element in the assembly, including ancestry. (Element Path is similar in concept to "breadcrumbs".) Generations (levels in the assembly) are separated by backslashes (or some other character) in the Element Path. Valid for all elements except volumes. |
| Element Type | Describes the element. For example: Assembly Root, Folder, Leaf, Reference Leaf, Volume, Document, TOC, Cover Page, Tab, Slip Sheet, Placeholder. |
| Error and Warning Count | Indicates the number of errors detected. |
| Error and Warning Details | Detailed information about errors and warnings. |
| Extended Attributes | Lists extended attributes for the element. |
| Extended Subtype | Describes the subtype for the element. |
| Extracts Exist | The “Extracts Exist” value pertains to the system’s captured data about the document’s PDF Rendition bookmarks. This value is assigned by the system as a default value and can be overridden in document element attributes.
|
| Font Library | The repository data file for the fonts. |
| Has Open Activities | Indicates whether there are active activities associated with the node. |
| Included in Page Numbering | Indicates the application of page numbers to the documents, cover pages, TOCs, and the system’s inclusion of those elements in page number calculations for other elements. |
| Inherited Attributes | Lists the inherited attributes for an element. |
| In Process Rendition Status | Indicates that status of an in-process rendition for:
Leaf Elements flagged for native file will have a value of N/A or blank. Reference Leaf Elements will have a value of N/A or blank. A value of Yes indicates that the in-process rendition is current, while a value of No indicates that a new in-process rendition should be created to reflect changes to the documents. |
| Language | The language used in the assembly. |
| Leaf ID | An eCTD attribute, valid for leaf elements only. The leaf ID number. |
| Leaf Status | The value of the Leaf Status attribute from the leaf element. Valid for a leaf element only. |
| Modified File | An eCTD attribute, valid for leaf elements only. Indicates that a file has been modified. |
| Operation | An eCTD attribute, valid for leaf elements only. New, Replace, Append, and Delete are leaf operations. If the operation on a leaf is New and the leaf has a value for modified file, an error is reported indicating Inconsistent Lifecycle; a new leaf cannot have a modified file value. If the operation on a leaf is Replace, Append, or Delete, and the modified file attribute does not have a value, an error is reported indicating Inconsistent Lifecycle; a modified leaf must indicate its modified file. |
| Order | A system generated value depicting the order from top to bottom for the element. |
| Output Filename | The name the output file receives at publishing time. Inherited from the Element Name provided in the element attributes. If there is no “Output Filename” associated with the element, the system will provide a value of NA. Valid for Volumes and Leaf Files.
Note: Underscores are stripped out of file names instead of being converted into dashes in the output file name.
|
| Output Path | Lists the repository path to where the element is published. Inherited from the Element Name provided in the element attributes. If there is no “Output Path” associated with the element, the system provides a value of NA. Output Path is valid for Volumes and Leaf Files. |
| Output Channel | Indicates the output channel: Paper Output Channel, Electronic Output Channel, eCTD Output Channel. |
| Overwritten Attributes | Indicates the values for Folder and Leaf attributes that would otherwise be inherited from a parent or root defined attributes, but have been overwritten by the user. |
| Planned Page Count | Indicates the total number of planned pages represented by this element. |
| Rendition Exists | Indicates whether a PDF rendition is associated with the element. The “Rendition Exists” value pertains to the presence of a current PDF Rendition for the bound document. This value is assigned by the system in document element attributes. The value of “Rendition Exists” is set by the system for PDF renditions created. Valid for documents. |
| Rendition File Size | Indicates the file size of the leaf file or volume. |
| Section | The folder or leaf in the assembly that is being queried. |
| Tab Text | Provides the resolved Tab Text (if known by the system). |
| Use Native File | Indicates whether to use native file format or to create a PDF for output. |
