Please check the following screenshots which displays the steps involved in generating such a report with some sample data:

Step 1: Exporting the JSON file from RMsis

Create a generic report in RMsis.

Export the data of the report by clicking on Export report to JSON icon.

A JSON file will be exported with RMsis data. This file will be used to import data into MS-Word.

Step 2: Importing the JSON file in MS-Word

Download the Word Add-In for RMsis from the following URL: https://appsource.microsoft.com/en-us/product/office/WA200001155

Install and Activate the Word Add-In for RMsis from the following location: Insert > My Add Ins > RMsis-Generic Report Add-In

RMsis Report Panel will become available after activation.

Click on RMsis Report Panel to open the RMsis Add-in panel

Click on Upload JSON report to import the previously exported JSON file of generic report.

Create the document template of the report. You can use the All button to insert a default template containing all the fields of the JSON report.

Download the sample template: sampleTemplate.docx

Modify the template by adding the field description, spaces, tabs, headers & footers, formatting the placeholders for RMsis fields and click on Generate Report button to replace the template with the final content of the report.

Please ensure that the tree structure of the template is not broken while formatting the document. For example, deletion of markers like {{#data}}, {{/data}}, {{#column}},{{/column}}, {{#relations}}, {{/relations}} etc will lead to error while generating the report. However, you can delete the placeholders for individual fields like {{R_KEY}}, {{R_Summary}} etc.

Upon clicking the Generate button, the Add-in will import the data from JSON file and replace the template with RMsis data.

Fine tune your report further by adding logo, cover page, date, time etc. Save the report or export the report to PDF by using the Save As option.
