Using Extra Columns in RVL to add Report Attributes

(Note: this feature requires Rapise version 6.0.15.34 or later)

Attached script uses column H for storing information about related requirements. 

In the User.js file we define a custom action for values in the column H:

OnRVLScriptStep=function(item, place, status, ctx, stackItem)
{
	if(place == "before")
	{
		var row = item.Startrow;
		// If 'H' has value, assign an attribute, otherwise clear it.
		if(row.Ext&&row.Ext.H)
		{
			Tester.SetReportAttribute('Req', row.Ext.H)
		} else {
			Tester.SetReportAttribute('Req', '')
		}
	}
}

It uses value from the cell to assign a custom Report attribute 'Req'. If value is not set then the attribute is reset. So final report looks like:
