Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of data processing, and in particular to a method for quickly generating reports. Background Art

[0002] In the field of geological engineering survey, with the rapid growth of survey data and the increasing complexity of engineering projects, generating high-quality and complex reports has become an important requirement. Existing report generation methods mostly rely on manually written scripts or codes for data query, processing and reporting. Although this method can meet simple data reporting needs, it is obviously inefficient when processing large amounts of drilling data, concurrent data access, and multi-dimensional information (such as depth, soil quality, and rock formations) in geological engineering, and it is difficult to ensure the accuracy and consistency of the generated report structure.

[0003] At present, although there are some template-based report generation tools, these tools usually have high requirements for template configuration and require users to have certain programming skills to achieve data query, logic control and format adjustment. In particular, in terms of multi-data source merging and processing, multi-table association query, and complex data logic processing, existing technologies often show great limitations. Existing solutions lack flexibility and are difficult to dynamically adapt to changes in business needs. As a result, when the template or business logic changes, users need to frequently manually modify the template or reconfigure the data logic, which increases the system maintenance cost. In general, the existing report generation technology cannot meet the actual needs of data-intensive scenarios such as geological engineering in terms of efficiency, flexibility and accuracy. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of the technical defects and technical drawbacks in the prior art, the embodiment of the present invention provides a method for quickly generating a report to overcome the above problems or at least partially solve the above problems. The specific scheme is as follows:

[0005] A method for quickly generating a report, the method comprising:

[0006] Step 1, creating an initial Word document template, using an occupancy symbol to mark the data position to be replaced in the Word document, to form a reusable Word document template;

[0007] Step 2, create a configuration table in the database, and define the data source table and corresponding processing rules required for each field of the report in the Word document template through the configuration table;

[0008] Step 3, read the Word document template, query the database based on the fields of the report in the Word document template, and obtain the data source table and corresponding processing rules in the configuration table;

[0009] Step 4: Based on the data source table in the configuration table, query the required data from the database table and execute the corresponding processing rules;

[0010] Step 5, using the queried and processed data to replace the occupants in the Word document template to achieve data filling;

[0011] Step 6, generate and export the final Word document filled with all the data.

[0012] Furthermore, the occupant is defined using a standardized format of ${table name.field name}.

[0013] Furthermore, the method further comprises:

[0014] Add data structure requirements for each placeholder according to the data field type and business logic, wherein the data structure requirements include formatting and data validation rules;

[0015] When creating an initial Word document template, embed conditional display and dynamic layout control logic.

[0016] Furthermore, the data source table includes the database table position, field name, data type and their associations corresponding to each field in the report in the Word document template. In step 4, the program queries the required data from the database table according to the database table position, field name, data type and their associations corresponding to each field in the report in the Word document template.

[0017] Further, step 3 includes: loading the Word document template through a program, parsing the placeholders in the Word document template, extracting the fields and data structure requirements corresponding to each placeholder; querying the data source table of the configuration table according to the field name, obtaining the database table position corresponding to the field name from the data source table, and establishing a mapping relationship between the placeholder and the database table position in the data source table;

[0018] During the parsing process, the program also checks the formatting and data validation rules of the placeholder. In step 5, data is filled based on the formatting and data validation rules of the placeholder.

[0019] Furthermore, the processing rules include:

[0020] Logical rules and calculation rules are used to set data filtering, aggregation and grouping logical rules for each field, and configure the corresponding dynamic calculation formula;

[0021] Conditional triggering and data filtering rules: used to set conditional filtering rules. By configuring conditional filtering rules, only data that meets project requirements is included when generating reports;

[0022] Data priority and update rules: used to set priority strategies and data update rules when integrating multiple data sources;

[0023] Logical rules and calculation rules are also used to define data conversion rules for specific fields.

[0024] Furthermore, the method further comprises:

[0025] Multi-table data query and data preprocessing: The program constructs multi-database table association query statements based on the database table locations, field definitions, and logic rules in the configuration table and executes database queries, including:

[0026] Dynamic SQL generation: Generate complex SQL query statements based on the associations and screening conditions of multiple database tables. The SQL query statements are used to handle multiple query requirements such as multi-database table connections, nested queries, and group statistics, so that the acquired data is complete and meets business requirements;

[0027] Data preprocessing: In the queried data results, preprocess the data according to the calculation and format rules in the configuration table. For example, perform unit conversion on numeric fields, perform format adjustment on text fields, format date fields, etc.

[0028] Data validation and cleaning: Before filling into the template, the data in the query results is validated and cleaned, invalid data is deleted and abnormal data is marked. At the same time, a data integrity check is performed to ensure that the field values ​​meet the format requirements defined in the template.

[0029] Furthermore, the method further comprises:

[0030] Data logic operations and grouping and aggregation: To meet the complex data logic requirements in the report, the program performs logical operations and grouping and aggregation operations on the queried data set, including:

[0031] Dynamic calculation and formula application: According to the processing rules in the configuration table, specific fields are dynamically calculated. For example, the average depth and cumulative thickness of certain drilling sections can be automatically calculated.

[0032] Data grouping and statistics: For data that needs to be grouped according to characteristics, the program automatically groups the data and performs statistical summary operations (such as sum, mean, maximum, minimum, etc.) to generate summary results that meet report requirements;

[0033] Multi-level logical nesting processing: When generating reports, the multi-level nesting logic of data is processed. For example, in some cases, drilling data needs to be presented hierarchically by time or region. The program can dynamically generate a nested layout that meets this requirement based on the logical rules in the configuration table.

[0034] Furthermore, the method further comprises:

[0035] Data filling and dynamic template rendering: After completing data processing, the program gradually fills each data into the corresponding placeholder position in the Word document template, including:

[0036] Conditional judgment and dynamic display: Based on the conditional display logic embedded in the Word document template, the template display content is dynamically adjusted when filling in data. For data that does not meet the conditions or empty data segments, the corresponding placeholders or rows and columns can be automatically hidden.

[0037] Complex layout processing: Processing complex report layouts across rows, columns, and multiple rows and columns, and filling corresponding data according to the requirements of report design, so that the filled data meets the requirements of report design in terms of layout;

[0038] Style and format application: Fill in data according to the formatting rules (such as font, color, alignment, etc.) set in the Word document template, so that the generated report meets the visual and formatting requirements, and automatically applies formatting rules such as date, value, and text.

[0039] Furthermore, the method further comprises:

[0040] Document generation and output: After completing the data filling, the program will export the generated Word document as the final report. To ensure the usability and flexibility of the report, the document export process also includes the following steps:

[0041] Automatic version control: After each report is generated, the system automatically generates a version number and records the report generation date for subsequent tracing;

[0042] Multi-format output support: Supports conversion of Word reports into different formats such as PDF or Excel, facilitating use in different scenarios.

[0043] Automatic backup and archiving: The generated report files are automatically backed up to the specified location, and the report generation log is recorded in the database to facilitate project management and historical data tracing.

[0044] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0045] 1. Improve efficiency: The speed of report generation can be significantly improved through automated processing, especially when processing large amounts of data.

[0046] 2. Reduce manual intervention: Users do not need to manually set templates and write codes, but only need to perform simple data source configuration, thereby reducing the complexity and error rate of manual operations.

[0047] 3. Enhanced flexibility: Supports complex data logic processing to meet the diverse reporting requirements in geological engineering. The system can dynamically adapt to changes in business needs.

[0048] 4. Reduce costs: Automated report generation effectively reduces labor costs, saves time on data filling and template adjustment, and helps reduce the overall budget of the project. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0052] Step 1, create an initial Word document template, use occupancy symbols to mark the data locations that need to be replaced in the Word document, and form a reusable Word document template.

[0053] Among them, the placeholders are defined in a standardized format, such as ${table name.field name}, to facilitate the automatic processing of subsequent data filling.

Conditional display and dynamic layout control logic can also be embedded in the template design process to meet the diverse needs of report generation, such as only displaying data that meets specific conditions.

[0055] Step 2, create a configuration table in the database, and define the data source table and corresponding processing rules required for each field of the report in the Word document template through the configuration table;

[0056] Step 3, read the Word document template, query the database based on the fields of the report in the Word document template, and obtain the data source table and corresponding processing rules in the configuration table;

[0058] Step 5, using the queried and processed data to replace the occupants in the Word document template to achieve data filling;

[0059] Step 6, generate and export the final Word document filled with all the data.
