| Extensible | true |
| SourceTable | Report Layout List |
| PageType | List |
| UsageCategory | Administration |
| ApplicationArea | Basic, Suite |

## Fields on this page

Layout controls in source order, grouped by the container they sit in. Shows: the table field a control is bound to (or its expression as written); ToolTip: the control's own, else the bound field's (marked).

| Group | Control | Shows | ToolTip |
|---|---|---|---|
| Group | Layout Name | `Rec."Caption"` | Specifies the friendly, translated display name of the theme or header/footer part. For tenant-defined parts this matches the name. |
|  | Name | `Rec.Name` | Specifies the name that identifies the theme or header/footer part. This is the value stored when the part is assigned to a report. |
|  | Description | `Rec.Description` | Specifies the description of the theme or header/footer part. |
|  | Type | `Rec."Layout Subtype"` | Specifies whether the artifact is a Theme or a Header/Footer part. |
|  | Publisher | `Rec."Layout Publisher"` | Specifies the extension and publisher that owns the artifact. Empty for tenant-defined parts. |
|  | Status | `Rec."Layout Status"` | Specifies the lifecycle status of the artifact. New parts start as Draft; only Approved parts can be assigned as report defaults. |

## Actions

| Group | Action | ToolTip | Runs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Processing | New theme | Upload a new theme part. |  |
|  | New header/footer | Upload a new header/footer part. |  |
|  | Export | Export the selected artifact file. |  |
|  | Show info | Show details of the selected theme or header/footer part, including how many report configurations currently use it. |  |
|  | Edit description | Edit the description of the selected tenant-defined theme or header/footer part. Out-of-box parts cannot be edited. |  |
|  | Replace | Replace the layout file of the selected tenant-defined theme or header/footer part. Out-of-box parts cannot be replaced. |  |
|  | Delete | Delete the selected tenant-defined artifact. Out-of-box parts cannot be deleted. |  |
| Part Status | Set as Approved | Approve the selected parts so they can be assigned as report defaults. |  |
|  | Set as Draft | Move the selected parts back to Draft. Draft parts cannot be assigned as report defaults. |  |
|  | Set as Pending Approval | Mark the selected parts as pending approval. |  |
|  | Set as Retired | Retire the selected parts so they are no longer offered for assignment. |  |

## Ask your agent

Procedure bodies are not stored here (D10). The call sections above are our own, per object, from the BC29 call graph. For a procedure body or the calls of one procedure, ask bc-code-atlas (external, by Stefan Maron, MIT; default corpus w1-28), which the bc-observatory plugin connects: `bcatlas_resolve_node(object_type: "page", object_name: "Report Theme and Header/Footer")`, then `bcatlas_get_procedure_body` or `bcatlas_get_neighbors` on the returned id.
